John was correct with the Kedumba area. Not Solitary but another well known landmark.

Spot on. JohnW!

Thanks Luc-Porter

Which QLD summit did I have to myself until eventually being engulfed by cloud:

: North-ish view from the summit of Walsh's Pyramid - Wooroonooran NP, Gordonvale via Cairns FNQ

by **johnw** » Thu 12 Oct, 2017 9:47 pm

I'm definitely at the pointy end of a fairly strenuous climb

by **crollsurf** » Fri 13 Oct, 2017 9:40 am

Cloud makes it hard but lets start trying to narrow it down. Is it Mt Beerwah? Background doesn't look right but it is a hard walk and pointy

by **MountainMadness** » Fri 13 Oct, 2017 10:16 am

Or I'll take your 'pointy end' bait and guess Walsh Pyramid (although I have never been so can't confirm)

...which has paid off MM, correct. Claimed to be the tallest free standing natural pyramid in the world at 922m ASL. It had been on my radar for a number of years and we were in Cairns for a short break in June, so I decided to finally tackle the relentlessly steep ~sea level to summit climb. Mentally prepared for that I really enjoyed it and had great views pre-cloud. Needs reasonable fitness, and take plenty of water.

Yep well its on my list when back up that way (so is Bartle Frere again and hopefully not when its bucketing down the whole time).

Next one is in Vic.

Near Feathertop looking down Avalanche Gully.

by **MountainMadness** » Sat 14 Oct, 2017 2:59 pm

Yep that's the one. We tried something different and did a spring ascent of the gully - I think once will do..................

Thanks MM. NSW...

I'm flat out providing a clue...KNP.

Geehi Flats

by **GBW** » Sun 15 Oct, 2017 8:22 pm

Not Geehi Flats Greg. NE.

It had to be c.1800m, and your cute clue nailed it.

But it's all someone else's, in fact, because I'm going bush tomorrow.

If no one else volunteers, maybe back to you GBW?

by **GBW** » Mon 16 Oct, 2017 7:07 pm

Thanks, fast game's a good game...Vic...where am I?

Blue Plains Spur?

by **GBW** » Tue 17 Oct, 2017 3:19 pm

You nailed the direction eggs but not Blue Plains Spur (which I Googled)

by **eggs** » Tue 17 Oct, 2017 3:53 pm

My problem is that I think I have the Nobs & High Cone, the Bluff and Mt Buller in view - but I think that pushes me off the map I have of the Alpine NP.

Maybe the Butcher Country track?

by **GBW** » Tue 17 Oct, 2017 4:39 pm

You've named the mountains correctly eggs but I wasn't on Butcher Country Track...and I wasn't wearing a dress.

by **eggs** » Tue 17 Oct, 2017 4:46 pm

I was wondering about the Crinoline, but it seems a long way away.

by **GBW** » Tue 17 Oct, 2017 6:11 pm

Got it eggs...The Crinoline. All yours.

by **eggs** » Tue 17 Oct, 2017 7:58 pm

In SA
There are 2 named peaks - looking for at least 1 correct.
And bonus for where I am standing.

: On the Gibber Plain looking to McKinley Bluff and Cleft Peak [amongst others] in the Gammons NP - northern Flinders Ranges

by **peregrinator** » Wed 18 Oct, 2017 8:55 pm

Mt McKinlay Bluff (and rock slide) on the left, background. Red Hill, ditto midground. Cleft Peak in there somewhere centralish, background. So I assume you are in the vicinity of Gibber Plain.

by **eggs** » Wed 18 Oct, 2017 10:06 pm

All correct peregrinator - in the Gammons NP - northern Flinders Ranges

by **peregrinator** » Thu 19 Oct, 2017 8:30 pm

It's an inspirational location, eggs. I have lost count of how many photographs I've taken from around there.

Next is one from Victoria, taken from a National Park next to farmland, with the top of the range in another National Park in the distance. What are the names of the two parks? Apologies for the blurry nature of the zoom from a basic camera.

It might be ANP to Buffalo.
