I haven't been to Picton, but the shape at back appears to be Federation.

The shape at the back is most certainly Fedders, and if you went to Picton with similar conditions, this is what you would see. All yours, eggs.

(ps: You really should do it. The forest on the Steanes Tarn track in particular is superb. The peak itself is also pretty good. Plus, if you're feeling really masochistic, the range circuit is a good solid workout.)

Wow. Either the photos are getting easier to pick, or I'm finally getting better at this.

I'll settle for either the peak in view or the nearer named landmark.

Is this Nevada from below Snowdrift Tarn?

Well, to be strictly accurate, I'm actually a little bit higher than Snowdrift, but this is no time for pedantry. Your go, Mr holes and hats.

Up near Clumner? Somewhere east of the high point maybe . . . trying to identify that bit of lake - could be Thor?

Right area but it's not Thor - Sorry I should have said there is a bit of zoom on this photo.

Yeah, I realise there's zoom, but it's just an issue of lining things up - and I'm dreadful at that. Maybe on Mersey Crag looking over the edge of Wilson? (It's been too long since I was in that area.)

Yep we were heading up to Ironstone from Lake Ironstone. That's the southern tip of Lake Nameless in the corner.

Over to you Last.

80 views and no bites. The mountain is a well known abel. I'm standing next to a lake.

It was in my planning for last year's trip, but weather changed our minds.
This year's trip is looking a bit shaky on the long range forecast.

You too huh? I went back late last year as I hadn't had views, gorgeous forecast in Hobart, but of course that means nothing in the SW and I arrived to find it in cloud. Went back 4 days later when it was 30 degrees and slogged up in the heat stubbornly just to get the views. A fantastic little range.

May have posted this one before but it's a goodie.
