Lake Newdegate from near the hut?
Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

No guesses yet.
Some clues:
This beach is in a national park. There is an island in this photo.

Indeed.

Seems that on some maps this is marked as Butler's Beach.

Your go.

Pretty sure you're not, but I have to ask - are you looking at Ironstone?

I should clarify, when I said PFM was closer, it was closer than Ironstone, but still some distance away.

Clue time - it's an off track location, and I'm next to a body of water. The mountain in the background is seen by thousands of people, but from a different angle.

Hmmm.... Western Arthurs, I'm getting Orion vibes but perhaps a little further West. Hayes somewhere?
