Is it from the Hounslow Heath track?

Thanks L_Cham. It didn't quite match mine from Brewery Knob but was similar enough.

The angle on Elysia, Eros and Hyperion says Minotaur or Gould. Gould would be more likely given how far away Elysia is.

Definitely from the side of Gould.

You can see the top of the Minotaur in the pic (foreground, slightly right of centre).

I have a very similar pic from the top of the Minotaur and angles are almost identical - but there is a difference with Lake Elysia - my pic is from a slightly lower altitude so the lake is barely visible. Gould is the only option.

I'll have to make it an easy one as I will be off walking for the next few days.
I don't know why it's on its side. Sorry, but you will get it.

Easy, yes Graham but good to get one I've actually visited - Mt Geryon from Lake Elysia.

That's it, John. I'm sure if the picture had been the right way up you would've got it first time.

Thanks Graham. I don't know how hard or easy this one might be but let's give it a try. Approximate location will do.

I think we need to narrow this one down slowly, maybe NP by NP. Are you on the Ben Lomond plateau?

I'm thinking west coast. the spagnum moss and what looks like quartzite gravel in the foreground. no idea where.

Closer but no, good strategy though

Bingo! Blue Tier Forest Reserve near Poimena on the early part of the Wellington Creek circuit (from memory).
I thought this one might cause some confusion, a much under appreciated area IMHO.

Yes norts. Lake Ball at dawn apparently. Stunning shot but hard to nail down. The restored hut is interesting - they seem to have done the roof in such as way as to discourage overnighting.
