Game: Where-is-it? (international)

[wayno]

correct Lake sylvester had a hydro scheme up there in the early 20th century

[eggs]

Thanks Wayno

Next one just requires the name of the National park - in Ireland

From Ladies View in Killarney National Park

[johnw]

This will be somewhat hit and miss. There are obviously many nice places in Ireland. Glenveagh National Park?

[eggs]

We did not go that far north in Ireland John.
Our road will take us past the lakes in view and through the gap to a major town.

[Tyreless]

Killarney National Park? (I did the Ring of Kerry in 1980).

[eggs]

Yes Tyreless - this is in Killarney National Park - the view from Ladies View

[Tyreless]

I don't have many international walking photos left so this one will have to do. USA.

[johnw]

I thought there was something vaguely familiar about the terrain. Along the "road to Hana" on Maui I think, Wailuaiki Falls?

[Tyreless]

That's it, John. I really enjoyed the road to Hana - the rest of my family got car sick from all the bends in the road.

[johnw]

That's it, John. I really enjoyed the road to Hana - the rest of my family got car sick from all the bends in the road.

We also enjoyed it Tyreless but left the rental car behind and did it by small bus. I don't think my nerves would have coped driving it. Coincidentally we gave an American lady with us some motion sickness tablets after she became very ill from all the bends etc.

I can't decide if this is too easy or too hard - NZ:

At the entrance to Milford Sound/Piopiotahi, Te Rua-o-te-moko/Fiordland NP New Zealand

[MountainMadness]

Real punt here but it kind of looks like what I remember of Milford sound (looking west-ish). Your subtle clue also suggests this

[wobbly]

Maybe Awaroa Bay on the Abel Tasman walk

Correct MM, pretty much at the entrance to Milford Sound. All yours.

[MountainMadness]

Sorry I forgot I posted here......

I'll keep in in NZ, what mountain am I climbing?

[wayno]

i could name dozens that look exactly like that

[eggs]

Lets start with Rollaston

[MountainMadness]

Yep eggs its Rolleston

[eggs]

Sorry - I forgot to check back on this one.
Rollaston does tend to draw ones eye in Arthurs Pass.

Next one is in Scotland.

Meeting of the Three Waters, Glencoe

[johnw]

Meeting of the Three Waters, Glencoe?

[eggs]

Yes - this time it is Glencoe John

[johnw]

Yes - this time it is Glencoe John

Yes Brian, earlier I was just a little off when you were actually on the Isle of Skye . It's a long time ago that we passed through Glencoe. I recall some waterfalls but can't remember if we visited this spot.

New Zealand next:

Mueller Glacier lake and moraine wall from Kea Point with the Hooker Valley behind - Aoraki/Mt Cook NP, Canterbury New Zealand

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

kea point?

[johnw]

Yes I'll pay that WFBW. I should have asked more explicitly, was anticipating name of main features in the frame. It is from Kea Point, overlooking Mueller Glacier lake and moraine wall with the Hooker Valley behind. Aoraki/Mt Cook is obscured by cloud.

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Ah ok fair enough, could have provided more detail if requested. NZ again:

[johnw]

My fault, I should have asked. I was pretty confident you knew the location .

Probably wrong but Is this Ice Lake?

[eggs]

Maybe Lake Castalia?

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Maybe Lake Castalia?

Castalia is correct. North branch of the Wilkin is a stunning area.

[eggs]

If I get back to NZ - that area would be high on the wish list.

Next one is on Europe

Approaching Refugio Bertone on the Tour Mt Blanc out of Courmeyour.

[eggs]

In Italy but near France. Nearing a refuge.

[johnw]

Why am I doing this, I'm supposed to be packing . View on the way from Courmayeur to Rifugio Bonatti, Tour du Mont Blanc?
