230 views. Hmm. I've started googling Abels. Apparently Hyperion = 'he who walks on high'. I'll try that.

For once, I wasn't being cryptic. It is, literally, named after a bushwalker, skier and decent bloke (except for the little matter of his employment). But that's just the peak in view. The place I am ... not sure where the name comes from. It certainly isn't a good old Anglo name. Although the thing of which it is part - that's Anglo alright.

Heh, either that or burnt
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

I was hoping for Guelph Basin, but Lake KW will do. Take it away.

Given how low the lake gets summer/early autumn, wet is not necessary.

Sorry for the delay. Yes I am on the saddle between Wylly plateau and Mt Victoria Cross, so I think pazzar is closest. Over to you

Apologies - was busy travelling for the day!
Any hints for this one? I can't quite place it.

feel free to post your own pazzar. I was just being impatient. I believe it's somewhere in the north of the state

OK, that's enough stuffing around. Let's get this back up and running. Or at least limping.

Barn Bluff and Emmett are obvious. If the lump on the left is Oakleigh I think you'd most likely be somewhere on the Clumner plateau - which the intervening ground ceretainly looks like - but it's a substantial area and almost every bump on the western and northern rims has a cairn. That one is very neat and precise, isn't it? You'd think I'd be able to remember it.
You wouldn't be on the lump the list calls Clumner Nth (which is the 1428m high point before the scrub bash out to Deception Pt), would you?

No, you are on the right line but I am further away from Barn Bluff.
