Nice!

I'm at the saddle just north of the Phoenix.

That little plateau just east of it would make a great little campsite, though wouldn't be the most protected from the weather.

Are you on the Southern Range, sidling the Hills and looking over Moores Bridge to one of the Reservoir Lakes?

The only other narrow, clear ridge like that I can think of is Wylly Plateau connection to Victoria Cross, but there's no lake beyond that.
Unless you're on La Perouse looking back at Pigsty?

It reminds me of Emily Tarn and little Arthur Tarn below. Are you on Hartz Peak, or maybe the saddle between Hartz and Snowy?

Thanks Graham. I've climbed Mt Snowy via the tarns below but not across from Hartz.

Much closer but no. I could possibly see Adamsons from here in clearer conditions.
