Looking NW from Long Tarns?

by **tas-man** » Sat 19 Sep, 2009 9:14 pm

You've got it robi ! Looking from the northern end of Long Tarns to Turrana Bluff, with Fisher Bluff in the distance.
Over to you

by **robl** » Sat 19 Sep, 2009 9:22 pm

Thanks tas-man. I remember seeing a similar image somewhere.

Looking at Mt Olympus from Orion Lakes

by **robl** » Sat 19 Sep, 2009 10:34 pm

Correct.

by **Nick S** » Sat 19 Sep, 2009 10:56 pm

thanks rob, took me a while to figure exactly what lake you were next to.
this one was taken just last week when we had that awesome sunny day..

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sat 19 Sep, 2009 11:26 pm

That so kinda looks like Picton. Pretty sure it isnt tho

We had a sunny day? I must have blinked.

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 2:40 pm

yeah nik it was a cracker of a day, right after a week of straight rain. we actually just took the day off! no regrets

This was a daywalk from Launnie if that helps (no, we didn't drive for 5 hours..)

I think I am slowing down and getting a bit lazy.
It doesn't quite add up but I have this fixation on the ridge on the right.
It reminds me of the mountains we saw north of the road on the drive through Fingal to St Marys.
The view appears top be a zoom which will distort the sense of distance.

And the mountains on the left appear to be part of a large run of mountain(s) - sooo - are you on the way up towards Stacks Bluff looking towards the east coast?

[Edit - this will not be right. Just checked some photos out. But I am not up to chasing it any more for now.]

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 6:38 pm

Yes... no idea Ben Nevis??

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 6:43 pm

ok. speed things up - this is the view looking the other way.

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 6:44 pm

Hmm now it looks a bit like where we were last weekend Ragged Jack....

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:01 pm

not on ben nevis or ragged jack swtas. one of those peaks should be fairly distinctive.., but i guess you're from the south of the state

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:06 pm

Haha is that an implication of my Intelligence or an understanding of my not having been to Ben Lomond before.... :evil:

Ok im really only guessing Stein Crags?

by **robl** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:13 pm

Mt Parmeener?

by **walkinTas** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:17 pm

Are you up on Storys Bluff?

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:19 pm

Wheres Mt Parmeener??

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:22 pm

haha swtas, I mean't the latter. i wouldn't say that about southerners, i did live down there for a few years but I didn't see much difference :lol:

ok hint, it's not part of the ben lomond plataeu

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:23 pm

Hmmm but lots of snow about that is interesting.......

ok next guess is...... :shock:

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:25 pm

Barrow?
Arthur?
Maurice........

by **robl** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:34 pm

Nells Bluf?

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:36 pm

ok swtas here's an uncropped pic. you gotta get this now

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:39 pm

Sorry robl! I didn't see your post. you are correct with Mt Parmeener

It's on the edge of the Western Tiers. We walked from near Lake Mackenzie to the cliffs

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:46 pm

Far out! Literally! hey how long did that take? You been to Western Bluff?? We wanted to do this recently but only had a 4wd and were worried about the road conditions....

by **Nick S** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:50 pm

I'd love to make it to Western Bluff, (which was the mountain in the first photo). It's quite a craggy looking thing actually. I reckon it would be a big day, more likely an overnighter. Camp on the edge, thatd be awesome..

by **robl** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 7:57 pm

I must scan some challenging pics sometime.

This one must be easy.

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 8:03 pm

Bill Wilkinsons book on the Ables describes a Route to the top of Western That only takes a couple of hrs or so. Aparantly the road is a bit rough tho! If you want details of the route PM me and I'll let ya know!! As long as if you go in there anytime soon you save a seat for me

I've had my car bogged twice recently and been involved in 3 other boggings recently....

And I got no Idea of that pic Robl......

by **eggs** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 8:37 pm

I'm being lazy again - but that photo reminded immediately of the Great Lake - [Edit - it might be] a grassed retaining wall holding back the lake.
Are you at the weather station at Miena?

Edit 2: Gee - strike 2. That has got to be a beach with that white sand and the vegetation pattern.

Edit 3: Hmm - that might place it on Maria Is - is this a remote solar powered automatic weather station at Encampment Cove?

by **robl** » Sun 20 Sep, 2009 9:35 pm

eggs, you win again.
It is Bishop And Clerk and Mt Maria from the AWS near hill 30 at Pt Lesueur.
(about 1.5k from Encampment Cove)

Did you google to the answer?
