It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is much better at the top.

Thanks Bap, I did enjoy the walking through that area when I was up there a couple of years ago.

You are trying to detect a 3m difference in height over the space of 300m ??

And what's with the naming convention?
- the List shows the name next to the lowest peak in this group of 4 - ie the other 3 peaks nearby are higher - but are not named?

Lots of unnamed peaks and ridges on this range. We passed several that could have been on the list, and a couple that are on the list are nothing more than a pile of rocks along a ridge.
I think these ones have a name due to their appearance and the way they stick up on the ridge like a pair of castles.

This makes me think of somewhere around Mt Cuvier, but I cannot get it to match any profiles?

Not Snowy.
Eggs is close...

edit (clue): I have posted in 'the game' before looking west from this exact location.
edit 2: so sorry, should have checked, but I was looking due south in my last photo from this location. :oops: :oops: :oops:

Well thanks for that.
I found a shot looking south and thought that can't be it!! :roll:
However, I am thinking it might have been a south shot from a report rather than the game?

My first draft response [which I deleted] was a small tarn south of Manfred looking back to Manfred?
Ahh - but its not Manfred proper - but Manfred junior to its west!! - that profile looks better.
Which makes this tarn high up the south side of Manfred rather than down in the saddle?

Sorry about that, no excuses for being lost when in the office :oops:
My other photo appeared here:

viewtopic.php?f=34&t=2307&p=21337&hilit=manfred#p21337

Yes, it's from the little hanging tarn on the southern slopes of Manfred looking back at Manfreds 'heel' or little Manfred (not sure if it has a formal name?).
Anyway, over to you...

Yes - but the same shot is in this thread: http://bushwalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1702&p=14463&hilit=+manfred#p14263

Next one? You might be able to pick up some man-made objects in this one..

Are you looking at companion hill communication towers with St Valentines Peak in the background, not sure where your standing though if this is correct ?

My apologies for forgetting about this since this morning... Bonus points here for naming the range. The general vicinity from which this was taken will be fine...

I'd say you've got it Stu. That definately is the peak of Mt Gnomon in the centre. Beautiful photo!
