Yes Mt Hay (known to Lt Dawes as "Round Hill") - this is from just north of Haley heights F/T above the headwaters of Mt Hay creek.

Thanks cajun. I'm still kicking myself about not getting Jonnosan's Mt Hay photo - I was there (and on the Hurley Heights trail) less than 2 weeks ago.

Next one is NSW...

This will be the recent dinosaur display at the bottom of Scenic World, Katoomba.

(Away bushwalking until Sunday night, anyone can go if this is correct)

Yes, ribuck has it. Such a wierd feeling to venture down into "Dinosaur Valley" after sweating it out all day across Jamieson Valley.

As ribuck says, anyone can go.

Hi jonnosan, just curious. Where were you when you took the photo? It looks like you are heading down a spur to the Kedumba River.

Similar perspective to my last post, where am I heading? Same area, NSW

Not very confident, thinking perhaps Ikara head?

Tyreless - yes I was on the spur that runs down between Leura Falls Creek and Three Sisters Creek. DM me if you want some track notes.

Thats it jonnosan, some nice views on the way and some spectacular views further along the firetrail but not much to see on top of Mt Banks, to many trees.

Thanks jonnosan, I've walked it a number of times. A favourite circuit is the Horse track then Rodriguez Pass and the Grand Canyon.

NSW. I don't think this location has been in the game before, could be wrong:

This does look similar, but it's not in the Lawson precinct jonnosan.
