Thank you. I've been up there a few times but not in conditions like that.
Where was I on this occasion?

Yes, that’s it. I call it Hugel Plateau but it doesn’t seem to have an official name.

We did not have clear views back when traversing the Thwaites Plateau, but I imagine you could get a view of the 4 Peaks like this from the pad out to the old campsite that was supposed to be out there.

Looks a bit like the top of Winterbrook Falls.

This was Angel Falls on the way to the Lonely Tarns.
The mistake was trying to push directly through instead of working down the left side of the buttress - but we were running out of time.
It was wetter next day as well.

Looks like Wild Dog from the north. Maybe from the Ironstone/Bastion Bluff area?

Vegetation loooks more like Cummings Head, but that's probably still wrong.

Bit more water than when I've been there.
I'm going to be picky about this one. Near enough will not be good enough:

Looks like the view looking east towards Western Bluff on the left and The Walls of Jerusalem on the right. From Lake Price before heading up Mt Pillinger behind this view.

Closer. A lot closer. But not quite. Not on an Abel.

Still no payoff? Time for change. Just a little change ...
