Coolio...ok let's take the theme sideways a bit. This mountain comes in purple and black and red and other colours too.

You might both be right but I was after Green Head and Greystone(the immediate foreground). I think the angle is a bit off to have a full "tricolour" image.

Gotta give it to ILUVSWTAS...

Fantastic guess, Graham - I wish I'd come up with that! Rufous whistler or fantail, with a ginger cat maybe! But unfortunately it's a fair way from there. I confess I didn't know folks used this slope to slide on until we came across them, which is why I thought it might be too tough. But in the context of the colour theme, there are not too many more places to choose from. This is not a fancy one. So I'll give it a bit of time. But I will say it's very accessible.

Okay, probably not fun with so little to go on. Here's the bigger picture:

Black Bluff Range, where the Belvoir Rd crosses it. Excellent for snow play. Rocky Sugarloaf & Mt Pearse in view.
