It certainly looks like a lovely area, will have to get out there and explore some time.

Looking for the name the lake in view or the mountain I was on here.

Could be from the Boomerang but if it is I reckon it's Pine Lake.

Got it in one, issyg. Hope you do get there. First time was terrifying as one a Scared of heights, but now it's fun! :D

Thanks Tortoise, I'm hoping to get there soon - I'm working on my fear of heights!

Where was I this fine winters day?

Go for it! The great news is how much it was possible for me to achieve with focussed effort in just 12 months. :) I've yet to finish my 'In which Tortoise Smashes the Anne Circuit' story. It contrasts dramatically with 'Tortoise's Epic Adventure', that took place the year before. Still not sure if I'll get to summit Federation if I get the chance. But I'll give it my best shot. (At least I've made it to the direct ascent now. We made the right choice to turn back when there was lots of water running over the rocks...)

Yep, Trestle is spot on! Probably my favourite mountain on the Wellington range.

Thanks! I'll keep working at it, I'm pretty determined to get to those places, regardless of how much it terrifies me :lol:

I agree, i just love the view back over towards Collins Bonnet. I quite enjoy Mt Marian as well and the view from there.
Anyway! Here's the next one. It's not a great quality photo, because at the time (2010), I only owned a basic digital camera.

I thought it might be New River Lagoon near the boat crossing but I can't see the boats.

Both answers are incorrect. It does look a bit like New River though!

I think that might be Manfred to the left, Curvier to the right with Byron and Olympus in the middle - which I think would put you on Tramontane (not that I've had the pleasure). Of course I could be way out.
