That's a pleasant looking tarn. Reminds me a little of Lake Belton, but not sure that's right...

It is in a NP but not Mt Field - and it is seen by lots of people :)

Based on that clue it's likely at Cradle. I'm guessing either Lake Lilla or Wombat Pool. Leaning towards Lake Lilla.
If I can find my shots of them it might help.

Looks more like Wombat Pool to me, but confirmation would also require digging out photos and I'm trying to pack, so ...

It is actually Lake Lilla in lovely morning light [the clue was "the name of the Lake"]

The clue evaded me also. And I still can't find my photos of either Lake Lilla or Wombat Pool:

Neither of those, a bit closer to PW but not by that much.

Yes, great detective work eggs. We had such good weather that I could see possibly 180 degrees worth of peaks from there.
