It seems to be a standard feature of the place. Has anyone ever had good weather there?

Gee, what a surprise, Pelion West ...
But the closer ridge looks like Deception Point which means you are on either Turrana or Fisher and, given the relative position of the boulder field, Probably Fisher.

So good getting the occasional win. When they're rare, you treasure them all the more.

it's not a Bluff and it's a good distance from Western.

South from Mt Read - but the right idea
