GAME: Where am I?

[Graham51]

It’s a long time since I’ve been there but it stuck in my mind.
This is where I was yesterday. Where is it?

[Tortoise]

The Badgers traverse?

[Graham51]

I’m not sure where The Badgers Traverse is. Is it in The Badger Range near Sheffield? If it is this is a long way away from there.

[Tortoise]

Yep, that's the one. Hmmmm.

[L_Cham_67]

One of the red paint tracks on kunanyi/Mt Wellington? The one that sidles up alongside the organ pipes.

[Graham51]

Yes that’s right. Up around the Organ Pipes.

[L_Cham_67]

Where was I on the weekend?

[Tortoise]

Castle Mountain, Eldon Bluff, Eldon Crag etc, are clear enough, but I can't figure out the gently sloping foreground.

[eggs]

Heading out to Proteus?

[L_Cham_67]

Heading out to Proteus?

Yep.
The lemon scented Boronia was in flower and leaving a very pleasant smell in our wake.

This is a borrowed photo

[Tortoise]

Taurus?

[eggs]

Yes - from Taurus

[Tortoise]

Thanks, Eggs. My photos helped. Next - where is my friend, who very kindly came back to help me over the tricky bit to join him on the summit?

Will you please stop teasing me wiith photos of Fedders?!

[Tortoise]

Will you please stop teasing me wiith photos of Fedders?!

Would I do that to you?! The scramble here was trickier for me than Fedders, but the exposure isn't as bad psychologically. Probably would have done nearly as much damage if I'd fallen, though. i.e. you've been here, probably by yourself!
Edit: My first assessment of the last 20 m or so was that it was the end of my possible quest for the Abels. Very thankful for helpful companions!

West Portal?

[Tortoise]

West Portal?

Yup.

[eggs]

I have heard it is tricky.

Looking down from Mt Hesperus

[Tortoise]

I have heard it is tricky.

Just one really awkward spot, just short of the summit. I expect you'd have no trouble, though, being good on rock.

[Tortoise]

I think you've started descending Moraine K.

[north-north-west]

Nah, West Portal was easy. I did three different routes onto the summit; only one made me rethink the wisdom of going that way, and only for a moment because the camera bag kept getting in the way.

Que?? Goodness me, you're secretly a rock monkey! I debated dropping waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down to see if there was a way back up to the real summit, but decided against it. The only way I could see was really awkward - so much so that I wasn't able to get back up on my own either - which was one of the things I found daunting in deciding whether to give it a go or not.

[eggs]

Cannot quite give it to Moraine A but you are close

[Tortoise]

That was K rather than A. Looks like you've dropped off Scorpio, with Vesta and Juno below.

I can scramble pretty well when the head behaves itself and the tendonitis isn't playing up - increasingly rare conditions these days.

The easiest way is up the little gully, but there's a wall a little further along that is climbable, and a much rougher route at the northern end of the summit ridge.

[Last]

You are on Frenchmans Cap, no actually on Mt Hesperus looking down on moraine A?

[eggs]

Second grasp from Last is correct.
Sorry about reading K and thinking A.
Hesperus looking down.

[Last]

Thanks eggs, next

Manfred?
