Close enough Greg. It's actually Trig Point Track a couple of km north of Upper Thompson Rd you can just see the trig in the pic. All yours.

So orbita, where was the concrete structure and what was it for?

Thanks sir Gerry, Well close enough is good enough for me seeing as how I haven't actually walked that section yet!! As I have retired in the last week I can look forward to completing more and more of it before the wheelchair arrives.

Still in Victoria and nor on the awwt or even the AAWT.

Must be contagious, I also retired on Friday :D. Well, for now anyway. Might go back part-time eventually. Hopefully the wheelchairs are decades away.

No guesses so let's start somewhere. Pretty sure it's wrong but could this be leading to the Old Glenaladale Weir, Mitchell River NP?

Sadly not the Mitchell River -although I can see why you would say that having been to both.

This is in Gippsland but West of the Mitchell. Right near a 4wd crossing- I just googled that crossing and an almost identical picture popped up.

It's a very nice walking up the North end of the park.
Is that Lake Eucombene, possibly from near Mount Hudson

I had a good idea it was Eucumbene so it was just a matter of chasing down the Island on the maps :)
NSW but further North this time.

Thanks crollsurf. Yet to go up it, though my son has done several trips and I'm aiming to join him on one.
