Ah the inner plant nerd gave it away for me - Carpha curvata in the foreground - one of the few places it grows in abundance!

Anyone can have a go next.

Thanks, Pazz.

Very close, Geevesy. To narrow it down, I'll include that we were climbing something:

No buts, NNW! Reckon we went up the same way. Stunning view - especially with the snow and ice.

Up that gully and across the top to the high point at the far end, where you realise just how much easier it would be to stay on the track and sidle the thing and then climb up that northern end? It's a nice little bump, however and yes, the views are pretty spectacular.

No snow here, but some lovely light:

Nah, not the same gully after all. I had that realisation a little earlier. :) Could have been tempted if it wasn't covered in ice, though.

A whole day and not a single bite. How disappointing. Surely others have undergone this baptism by fire?

Yerss, from the area around the little tarn just above it, looking over the shoulder of Flame Peak.
*sigh* Hope I get weather like that when I go back.
