Bound to be wrong but it will haunt me until I say it: that looks like the ridge leading from Massif to Falling.

(edit to fix the typos. I need to get a new keyboard)

Of course it is, nnw! :)
I may be wrong, but I can only think of 2 big-bouldery traverses in Tassie like this - Eldon and Du Cane.

Do you mean of course it's wrong, or of course it's Falling from Massif? I'm going to assume the latter.
(Not that the Du Cane ridge is anywhere near as bad as the Eldons.)

Tough? I thought it was bleeding obvious. Of course it's Cradle Valley (aka Ronny Creek).

Close enough. This is an unnamed pool, but it is on the track past Lake Hanson and that is indeed Hanson's Peak above.

Thanks. I've never had to use that. Whenever I've been there it's always just been me and maybe one other tent at most.

I’m guessing that’s a mountain bike track. I’m guessing that’s a lighthouse in the distance. I’m guessing it’s Eddystone Point. So maybe you were at Weldborough, maybe?

Thank you and good night. Take it away, Last.
