I’d want a fair bit of the headland for that price.

I just looked it up and actually it’s only (offers over) 3,998,000 so you might get some change.
Yes, it’s Roaring Beach - your turn Last.

Thanks Graham, next. Apologies for the quality

The change would be annihilated by fees, taxes, etc.

You're on the right track but about 20km off.

The rock appears to be quartz, i think i can see the sea in the background. Somewhere on the Franklands?

It's also taken in the morning. Looking towards the South East.

I cant find that size cliffs in my photos of the franklands though.
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

Reeds Peak and the Franklands are too far south.

It is taken in the morning, but is not looking towards the south east.

I'm not sure re the technical difference between quartz and quartzite, but Last is onto something there.

I'm just amazed that none of the others recognised it. That area is so distinctive.

Clumner is in a different direction from this spot, but you are in the right area.

I am. Or was. The fires really opened up the views on that part of the peak.

I never saw it pre-2016 fires, so I got an easy(er) trip up compared to others.
Anyone else can go.

I think I know this mountain. In fact I remember climbing it once.
It looks a bit like a cradle, and I recall something about white birds and that lake.
