Not Narcissus, but you're in the right part of the state

Derwent? Although it looks too open for that. Cuvier? Or even the Franklin above Dixons . . .

Meh, it still looks more like the Narcissus than anything else. :roll:

Lots of confidence NNW!

Cuvier is correct - Mt Olympus is just visible through the trees...

No confidence whatever, which is why I went with the 'thinking aloud/scattergun' approach. Thanks.

This view from an unofficial campsite is where?

Nope, not near Mt Anne. We're in the Franklin-Gordon Wild Rivers National Park here.

A shot at Judd? :wink:

I was trying to make that Ida, but I can't. Wrong park, apparently.

In that case, I suspect we may be looking at Gell from Australia Tarn . . .

We are indeed standing in 'Straya Tarn. It has to be one of the biggest tarns around I reckon, almost lake-like... :roll:

Nope. This one is a bit different. Behind a locked gate somewhere not meant for walkers.

Does that mean you were doing something naughty? Only because I remember driving past it earlier this year and I think there's a locked gate/restricted access, are you somewhere near McPartlan Canal? Or I could be completely off the mark.

EDIT: Too slow as usual :roll:

That's it, down the road along McPartlans. Pity the thing doesn't go further, the creek beyond the canal is rather cute.

Which is why you should never judge anyone by appearance.
