It's similar to the view from Tyndall but seems a little lower. Huntley Lookout or Walford Peak?

PW is correct. NNW was on to it but hadn't actually named it so it's yours.

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve seen this view. Looking at Shipstern Bluff from the lookout before the descent, or it could be from Raoul Lookout.
