Right area of the state, but I'm on a track at sunrise.
It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is much better at the top.

Are you on the track up Mt Murchison shortly after it comes out into more open foliage?

This will be a complete guess but are you on Penghana Hill?

Very close now - but not Penghana Hill.

Edit - it is a small hill with a special object on top - and has some name association with an abandoned mine in/near South Forest

You seem to be circling the target. [The name of this particular spot is not on The List]

To assist - this is a wider view from the same spot in the same direction:

Ok, One more guess I promise. Are you on Spion Kop Lookout?

By the way both of those photos look fantastic.

It looks like somewhere in the Derwent estuary, Bruny Island, Coningham, Tasman Peninsula or some such. Is it near the Coal Mines on the Tasman Peninsula?

Nope. This is taken outside of my usual playground.
The range on the left hand side aught to be a good clue.....

Yeh - on review I think it might be Mt Beecroft.
My view in the reverse direction picks up that mountain in the middle.
