GAME: Where am I?

[ILUVSWTAS]

WAG - Castle Hill from the De Witt Range?

Hopefully in the next year or 2 i'll have a picture from that area.. This is a slightly more accessible peak/range.

[north-north-west]

Out on Remote looking back over the Franklands?

Out on Remote looking back over the Franklands?

That valley was badly burnt when I was through there. This is much more accessible than the Franklands.

[stepbystep]

This has got me flummoxed ... I keep thinking that outcrop on the right looks like something on the Needles but something(lots) is wrong...

Lets go for Schnells from Eliza?

[doogs]

Mt Wright?

[ILUVSWTAS]

This has got me flummoxed ...

Don't worry it did me too... I had to check my photos twice to make sure this shot didn't come into the wrong folder from somewhere else...

Not Schnells... in fact you would have been standing somewhere close by when I took this photo.

[ILUVSWTAS]

Mt Wright?

That's the one.

[doogs]

Thanks ILUV..

[north-north-west]

Near Ooze?

[doogs]

Near Ooze?

Well, yes, near Ooze Lake. About ten metres away if that's deemed close. It really depends on your perspective. It felt close but if the weather was inclement and I was tent bound it would feel far away

[north-north-west]

I wasn't aware that one was required to give a distance from the nearest landmark. Will try to do better next time.

[RicktheHuman]

That looks like North Star and The Spires....Are you on Reeds Peak?

[north-north-west]

Heading for it to be strictly accurate but that's good enough.

[RicktheHuman]

I never made it onto Reed's when I went to Rhona. I took an off track approach and left the track just after Gordonvale and ascended the Denison Range at the Southern End, It was a stinking hot day, I was exhausted by the time I arrived at the saddle above the Lake Rhona Descent, so I went down and froze my butt off camping on the beach

Next

[stepbystep]

That's gotta be Cygnus .... ahhh....

[stepbystep]

I'm confident, here's one to kick things along...

[RicktheHuman]

yep, Cygnus it is, And it looks like you might be on Mt Snowy? or perhaps a little further south?

[stepbystep]

Thought you'd gone MIA RtH ... That's not Snowy, further south is correct

[RicktheHuman]

It's gotta be Esperance Peak?

[stepbystep]

It's gotta be Esperance Peak?

That's the one, I've been eyeing off that Hartz-Adamsons traverse for a bit...

[RicktheHuman]

Anyone else can go.

Yes it looks like a good 2-3 day walk that, How did you get to Esperance? From Hartz?. That end looks like more open walking

No quite the opposite. From Adamsons it us lovely and open alpine walking. From Snowy to Esperance it is quite scrubby and slow. Did it as a 2 night trip a few winters ago now. Great walk. The section from Snowy to Esperance was *&%$#! though with no real camp options.

Find a weather window. You go one way, I'll go the other so we have a car at each end without all the tedious stuffing around.

And pray you don't miss each other in the donga between Esperance and Snowy..

Interesting, thank for the info. I have done both Adamson's and Snowy so I'm looking forward to this trip one day

I will start a day early to make sure we pass on Esperance. Or maybe two days . . .

Haha...deal.

PS went up from some forestry roads the first time. 5-6hrs return from memory.

[RicktheHuman]

I did ask someone else to go, But I'l keep things moving
Where am I?

[ILUVSWTAS]

Laperouse?

[RicktheHuman]

Yes, On the way up. We got clouded out on the featureless summit, became disorientated and tried to descend off the Southern Side
Out came the GPS when we couldn't find any cairns..
