Great photo, looks like Cuvier Shelf by the tarn looking southeast.
That looks like a pad.

Close - but there is enough in it to suggest its not Cuvier Shelf

In that case are you on Coal Hill?

Ah ok that was what I meant with my first guess, should have been a bit more specific.

Not quite that high up but close enough. This was taken just before the last scrub band on the way up from Byron Gap.

Oops! Been that way twice in the last few months. :roll: Didn't see those rock formations. I can be notoriously unobservant. (The memory can be pretty dodgy too!) Out of interest, was it somewhere near this flat open lookout spot? Maybe more around to the north? (We started up the pad, then bashed through scoparia.) Am I going nuts??

That's the one L_Cham. Picture fails to convey the horizontal sleet.

Id say it is pretty close to that spot. From memory it was just after the first part of forest that had a few tapes/cairns. From there on it was mostly scoparia.

I was lucky enough to have a great summer's day when I was up there in January.

Yep, coming up from the buttongrass plains below. Was a serious scrub bash back then, but could be a lot easier now after the fires. Not that it's worth celebrating though...

Yeah, I imagine it would be very different now.

Where was my partner watching the sun do some stuff?

I first thought Maria, but the position of the sun is wrong.

This would be a complete guess, but is it one of the beaches in the far southwest? Ketchem bay perhaps?

So is that a sunrise or are you over the eastern side? It's been too long since I did that (ie: more than a month) for me to remember it properly.
