Looks very Mt Field-ish, maybe the pad along The Rodways?

The visibility coming across the Rodways was not even close to this good. I could barely see the next cairn up there. Think further south.

Definitely getting tougher. There is so little in view - so very hard to deduce from maps and satellite images.
But now and then there is a stroke of luck in guessing these.
My youngest one loves a bit of a scramble and I gave her permission to scramble up a pile of rock next to the track.
This was the result:
Looks oddly similar - so is this the saddle on the Hartz track near the junction that splits the track to Hartz Peak from the track to Lake Hartz?

I actually had second thoughts as soon as I posted, thinking that you may have actually been further along, but my map confirmed it for me.
You will recognise the landmark in this one, but where am I?

You have the mountain right, but not my location.

The angles suggest you are on the Dial Range but difficult to pick which peak.
Possibly Mt Montgomery?

I have no idea of the peaks on bruny, or any towns really. Is it Mt Mangana?
