Dome hill didn't have scrub when I was there, perhaps enroute to nereus if you ventured further west than my route?

Not High dome. Not the track to Oakleigh either but the closest so far

I had originally though it could be the old Forth River track, but the rise on the RHS seemed out of place - but perhaps on that track fairly close to the Old Pelion Hut?

Near Tarn of Islands? There is a view of PW from the low ridge on the southern side iirc.

The ridgeline view of PW is similar to the view from the Arm River track crossing of the Douglas Creek near New Pelion Hut.
It is tricky because everyone knows the long ridge runs east west, but this angle shrinks it to almost nothing and makes the back north running ridge look enormous.
So the photo is to the north from that track point.
The question is whether it was from the Arm River Track itself, which may be possible [but I cannot place my hands on a shot from the point where that track passes from a button grass section into the forest]
or whether it was from the alternative side track which heads towards the Pillinger turnoff?
I have not been on that side track and I have a sneeking suspicion that I might have seen PW briefly from that spot on the Arm River Track - so I will go with that as my guess.

We need to move on, eggs is close enough. I had come up the Arm River track and branched onto the old loop that leads to Pillinger. As I neared the saddle at the bottom of the Pillinger ascent this unexpected view of PW appeared.

Could be, Chimaera and Hippogriff behind. But I don't recall see open ground that close to the lakeshore ...

Yes, I thought the leech ridden campsites were further from the "lake". It looks dispiriting enough to be Dixon though.

Let's get the obvious ones out of the way first. Is this back at Shadow or Forgotten (not that I can make sense of those bumps if it is)?
