That's the spot

by **ribuck** » Tue 23 Jul, 2019 7:03 pm

Thanks eggs.

Does anyone recognise this camping overhang from NSW?

Dadder Cave?

Sorry fat boy, it's not Mt Cole.

It's not Dadder Cave, jonnosan, although it is somewhere in the Blue Mountains.

Despite the sunshine and the guy wearing a T-shirt, it was a bitterly cold June day, and the altitude is over 1000 metres. The guy standing as close to the smoke as he can is trying to glean some warmth from the fire. In fact, that guy is me when I was in Year 12 in 1975.

Here's a shot which was taken 10 metres away, facing west:

if you are facing west in the 2nd photo you must be on the north side of a river flowing east.
The only area in the Blue Mountains I can think of where you are over 1000m ASL above a river flowing east is the kanangra area above the Kowmung. But I cant match either photo with the caves I know (Dance Hall, Coal Seam, 100 man, 1000 man).

So i got nothing.

Is it that little over hang as you near the end of Narrow neck?

by **ribuck** » Wed 24 Jul, 2019 6:14 pm

There's not much of a river below the mist, jonnosan. A couple of creeks, some bush and a bit of farmland. Not near Kanangra.

It's in the upper Blue Mountains, puredingo, but not in the vicinity of narrowneck.

There is another camping overhang less than 500 metres away. These caves are 20 minutes walk from a pub and a railway station.

by **jonnosan** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 5:16 am

I believe the latest photo is Sundeck Cave, Mt Piddington, in which case Pulpit Rock is in the middle distance in the 2nd photo and Kanimbla valley is down in the mist.

by **ribuck** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 5:49 am

Absolutely correct on all counts, jonnosan. And the original photo is very close to the dirt road that leads to Mt Piddington.

by **jonnosan** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 6:05 am

thanks ribuck.
NSW again

by **ribuck** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 7:10 am

If I'm not mistaken, that's Horizontal Falls.

Yeah not sure what's going on there - it shows correctly (for me at least) when you click it to get the full screen version

by **jonnosan** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 7:43 am

maybe this one works better

by **johnw** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 9:14 am

That would be Leura Falls near the start/end of the Lindeman Pass

Indeed it is. Your turn johnw

by **johnw** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 2:15 pm

Thanks jonnosan, looks much drier than when I was last there.

NSW. What am I descending and what is my objective?

: Descending the north side of Mt Hay to access Venus Tor - Blue Mountains NP via Leura NSW

by **jonnosan** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 7:20 pm

flora and rock both remind me of north side of Mt Hay, can't place a specific pass or objective though

by **johnw** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 9:28 pm

I'll pay that jonnosan, I am descending the north side of Mt Hay. I don't think the pass has a name.
I'm headed for Venus Tor, which is not too far out of view to the right.

by **jonnosan** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 9:39 pm

cheers johnw.

I got nothing to post will defer to anyone else who wants to go

by **crollsurf** » Thu 25 Jul, 2019 10:03 pm

OK, here is another from not too far away in NSW

: Fletchers Lookout, Wentworth Falls, NSW

by **ribuck** » Fri 26 Jul, 2019 3:02 am

It's Leura. I'm going to guess the Bridal Veil Falls lookout?

by **jonnosan** » Fri 26 Jul, 2019 6:00 am

I agree it's Leura but I think that one is Copelands not Bridal Veil

by **crollsurf** » Fri 26 Jul, 2019 7:24 am

Close but if you went a bit further East...

by **jonnosan** » Fri 26 Jul, 2019 7:29 am

Majestic?
If I am correct someone else can take my turn

by **crollsurf** » Fri 26 Jul, 2019 7:45 am

East of Majestic Lookout

by **johnw** » Fri 26 Jul, 2019 11:27 am

I thought this looked familiar - Fletchers Lookout, Wentworth Falls
