I reckon you've got it. That's definitely Mt Olympus. The lumps and bumps along the top line up with my photos from that area. I was going to guess somewhere close to that, but you beat me to it.

South coast is even wronger.
There is a track to this point. There is a very old, faint pad from here to the coast, where it joins another track.

Ah. I forgot about Haven. While it looks similar, this is in a different part of the state - and much more accessible than the WArthurs.

Well, the rocks look east coast, but I can't line up any penisulas /islands. Am I on the wrong track?

Thanks sandy, next. I know where I am but i'm not absolutely sure what the mountain in the background is. Any guesses on that as well as my location?
