Not Picton. Not even close to Picton. And it's a recent photo.
Thought there'd have been more reaction to this one - I was angling for a quick turnaround.

That's it. The fancy new footbridge over the river from a little way upstream.

Thanks NNW, it was an educated guess noting the new foot bridge constructed over the old logging bridge. I had a vague recollection of reading something about a new footbridge being constructed on the track to Rinadena Falls.
Here's the next one - where was I standing, and a bonus point for the range lit by the sun's Rays in the centre distance.

Is this from Arthur Plains, somewhere around Nine Mile Creek?

There's a cryptic clue in my photo comments.

Quite a clue... So perhaps at or a little south of Melaleuca on the South Coast Track looking up the valley of Passage Creek to the Ray Range?

Well, that's Ronny Creek depot down there next to the road, which would put you on either the Crater Falls section of the OT, or the Horse Track. Or the Wombat Pool/Peak bit, although I think the angle is wrong for that. I think the Crater track, although I've never noticed all the fagus there.

Closest thing I can see apart from the vegetation is a part of the track lower down.

Not the Crater Track.....so....
And the fagus was very nice
And there is a building much closer not far from that track you can see - the photo will expand if you click on it.

You were on the Horse Track heading up to Crater Peak, and the track is visible in the middle distance with the Scout Hut on the ridge behind amongst the trees.

Yeah, I do like to have options. Makes life difficult in this game, however. Apologies.
Will take this one and try to remember to do better in the future.

There's a good reason for that, which is that your memory isn't being as unreliable as usual. Travellers Rest it is.

That looks very similar to the area near where I pitched my tent on the Hugel plateau.

It does look similar to the Hugel plateau, but it is some distance from there.
