Tick for Lake Burbury. I thought you'd get it as soon as you figured that bit. Mind you, you may never have seen the view - though I thought you would have on at least one memorable trip.

From that, I assume this is from Eldon Peak camp.

A good assumption. I had trouble working out what things in the photo were exactly on the map, even knowing where I was! But if you can work out that it's the southern end of the northern half of the lake that's nearest to the camera, I think you've only got one very high place to chose from.

Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong, Eggs, but I think we're looking at Thureau Hills, Jukes Range, Darwin, and Sorell at the back. Mt Owen out of the photo to the right.

All very logical. Which is fine when the little grey cells are in logic mode.

Sweet-talking me will get you nowhere. I'm impervious to flattery.

A little zoom, a little cropping, a disinclinatioon for pedantry right now (it's Eldon Peak; there is no Mt Eldon) and you're up next.

Is sneaky or human flattery?

This one is a fun one.

It might.

I'd prefer to know where I am though.

Thank you
I saw a platypus where the inlet stream that flows down from Tent Tarn enters Chalice Lake (on the right of your photo).

Next, where was I watching the late afternoon sun?
