Near enough. This is Bird Rock, near Ile du Nord (the rocks on the left of the picture), off Maria Island.

No, although you're not as far out as you could be. That bump has no name on any of my maps. The wet bit has, however.

No, although if you mean Pencil Pine Tarn, that's very close.

Oops PP Tarn not Lake.
My other option (well one of them) was Lake Gwendy.

Yep, Gwendy it is. Pity that weather didn't last overnight. Instead it was wild, wet and windy, with a lot of interestingly close lightning strikes.

They need to rename the PPTs. I've been to at least three so far.

Thanks NNW

In this next one the water body is unnamed but the pile of rocks on the horizon is.

Mt Spurling it is. (from an unnamed lake just south of Lake Athena - at least that's how its shown on my maps). Listmap however seems to suggest its actually joined to/part of Lake Athena.
Over to you Eggs.

Lovely photo - and perhaps recent from the fagus colour?
My plans were scaled right back - so we did not get to the Traveller Range - but where did we get to 2 weeks ago?

I thought it looked familiar with the frenchman poking his head up in the background. I don't have any challenging photos available at the moment so anyone can have a go.

Here's one to keep things going. Shouldn't be too hard, just one i've been remembering fondly of late.

PoWs, south of Diamond Peak. Can't imagine how that scrub would make you nostalgic.

You are on the Western Arthurs looking south to the Norolds, Ray Range, and over Bathurst Harbour to Bathurst Range, and New Harbour Range in the far distance. I'll take a punt you were on Capella Crags.

Trying to decide whether to be really picky about this one...but nah. On the western height of Capella rather than the absolute high point. It's an interesting little bit of terrain.
so over to you, tas-man.

OK here's one that I don't think has ever been posted - this cliff face feature is nicknamed "The Nun" by the locals.

Too far north . . . but you are right, these cliffs are unique.
