That's it. Twin Spires (south) on a fantastic sunny day with near zero wind (just a gentle breeze to cool us down a tad).

The number of mountains that can be seen in every direction from here is quite amazing.

Thanks sob. It certainly looked like a wonderful day. Not the sort of weather I often get in Tassie...

Thanks Andrew, great view from there.

Which mountain (not in the picture) was I on my way to here?

As well as a rainbow you can also see moonlight - despite it being daytime.

Not Tasman Peninsula.

Even further south than there, and a fair bit west.

Pretty sure it's the Hippo, so probably Leillateah. Once upon a time I thought of visiting the latter.

Not Mt Anne. It's in a different part of the state.
Edit: Sorry it's not sharp. If you click on it and zoom in, there's a very big clue.

Yep. And there's a more identifiable one in the mid-ground.

Hey there, Norts. Very much on the right track, but Dean Bluff has eluded me twice now! Other priorities got in the way.

Which gets me back to my first thought of Pelion East before I suggested West.

Sorry, Wander! PE is one of the fan favourites that is also out of the picture, to the left. Norts was a tad closer as the crow flies, and much closer as the tortoise plods.

Piggybacking off others detective work, I'd say that the two hills of Pelion East are what's in front of Barn Bluff, with Oakleigh also partially hidden but just showing a tiny bit of its pillars.

Lining everything up, I'd say you are on Cathedral Mountain.

Yep, Hillsy. Your lining up is correct. Sorry, Wander. You were so close again.
