Sweet, i'll jump in with one which shouldn't pose too many problems. What mountain did I climb yesterday on my 3rd attempt? And what am I looking at?

I reckon you climbed Mt Picton and you are looking at a valley of destruction :x :lol: oh and the Hartz Range.

Of course that's Mt Anne, probably from somewhere in the Snowy Range.

Ok, let's go east coast, and call that Mt Freycinet, and you might be camping at Hazards Beach??

Indigo Creek is correct - at the south end of Wineglass Bay - one of the Hazards at the back

Now Eggs, I must be missing something. If we're looking upstream (which i think we are), that's south-ish from the far end of Wineglass Bay, and the Hazards are all north-ish from there...

You're looking downstream - this is the mouth of the creek.
It turns hard left at the end of this sand and that is where Wineglass Bay sand ends and the rocks start.

I reckon you're right regarding Hyperion, but I think it might be from the southern flanks on Mt Massif... looks like the Eldon's in the background.

Geevesy is correct. The southern side of Massif - from the cliff tops south of the summit bowl looking west to Hyperion and the Eldons
