Thank you.

This spot doesn't have an official name, so what are the two lakes in view?

Not Little Horn.

I'm off to the bush tomorrow so I'll provide another picture with more light, and a clue.

The clue is: crunchy

Ooh, I know that clue! Took me long enough to work it out, iirc. :roll: I'll claim the answer if nobody has it by tonight.

Nice work Tortoise and NNW. PB is correct.

Since I'd used the crunchy clue with Tortoise in real life I think she's happy to let you have it NNW.
Over to you.

Thank you, Hills, and I trust you have a good walk, wherever you go; I'm happy to claim it as the clue means nothing to me but your second image was familiar.

It might have meant more if we'd got to the second clue, which would have been 'smooth'.

What's a smooth crunch got to do with a precipitous bluff?

Crunchy. I prefer smooth on my toast, with honey.

I think I'll give that although it's not entirely accurate. It's from Mullens itself.

I keep thinking it's gotta be Cradle somewhere, but I can't make anything fit.
