You're close with both but not quite right. It's not on a "current" established track

I'm stumped...somewhere out on what LISTmap calls the Little Plateau? If not there, then maybe on the Cradle Plateau off the 'official' tracks?

First thought - Pandani Shelf?? Can't quite match the photo, though.

I had the feeling that you were in the Lake Sydney sinkhole and perhaps looking at McPartlans Bluff.

No, and no. You have to think outside the box - or at least off the track.

We're looking at something with a military connection from something with a royal connection. And the two guesses so far are in the right half of the state, with the second being closer.

Are we looking at Mt Victoria Cross? King Billy Saddle isn't offtrack, so I'll go back to LISTmap and see what I can find in case i'm on the right track so to speak.

Yes, that's VC. And I'm not in a saddle, I'm on something - and that royal connection is marital . . .

Yes, Alexandra it is. Marvellous walking out there.
Looking at Bisdee or Victoria Cross? Good question. The summit ridges are of a very similar shape from out that way, so it could be either. Not like there's any chance I'd recall which one I was pointing the camera at back then. Though something in subconscious keeps saying Bisdee . . . though that may just be because I haven't - and probably never will - climbed the blasted thing yet.
