Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[Lophophaps]

Greg, close but no salami. (One hopes that salami is preferred to cigars.) I know the Bogong HP pretty well, and this is the only feature like this that I can recall.

[neilmny]

It's a water diversion wall or channel which is part of the hydro aquaduct system...........but where is it???????????

[Lophophaps]

There's only a few aqueducts near Ryders, and only one that looks like this.

[neilmny]

SWAG Cope East aquaduct?

[Lophophaps]

Neil, correct. I went up the Cope summit track from the road, which was interesting as my map did not show the track. No GPS either. At the flattening at about 1740 metres I went to where it started to get steep then went south, hitting a small saddle. Then SW down the creek, on-off track, to reach the end of the Cope East Aqueduct, where the pic was taken. Crossing the creek below Ryders involved a leap of faith. All yours.

[neilmny]

Thanks Lops. This one is in Victoria and I would like the name of the summit I'm approaching.

Will it be Mt Wills?

[north-north-west]

Looks like Cope.

[neilmny]

Cope it is....all yours NNW.

Sneaky, posting that after Loppy's.

Moving over the border to Dubberland, where is this trig?

[Lophophaps]

Gungartan? That looks very bleak. Did you live?

[north-north-west]

Bleak? There''s blue sky visible.
Wind was horrible and the morning was a bit socked in, but otherwise not that bad. I may have survived. At least . . . I don't remember carking it . . .

Gungartan it is.

[Lophophaps]

The air temperature looks quite brisk, and despite the blue sky there is probably wind. Last time I was there I had wind, did you? I'll take it as read that you lived. The pic below is in Victoria.

[neilmny]

Somewhere on the Cathedral?

[Lophophaps]

No, quite some distance from there, maybe six hours for the drive and several hours for the walk to the ridges in the pic.

[neilmny]

So Eastern Victoria.....going by the look of the forested mountains in the background?

[Lophophaps]

Eastern Victoria is correct. The background is not much help, but the rock formation should be.

[north-north-west]

I was thinking maybe Buffalo somewhere, but can't place it.

[crollsurf]

Standing on Cleft Peak maybe.

[Lophophaps]

Cleft Peak is correct.

[crollsurf]

Thanks Lophophaps, looks well worth a visit.

The focus is Mitchells Ridge from the lookout but Mt Victoria is in the picture next to it so fair enough, over the to you Walk_fat boy_walk

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Sorry forgot I posted. NSW:

[Lophophaps]

KNP, Main Range, Ramsheads.

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Yep, just a little south of Ramshead Nth

[Lophophaps]

Is it my turn, or do you want something more specific? When I skied past there was a lot more snow (always useful when skiing) and I did not fix the feature on the map. There's a decent sized plateau at about 2080 metres, maybe one of the bumps on that.

I reckon he's given you a yes and it's your turn. I've been to that feature myself, AFAIK it is unnamed.

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Yeh your turn. Not looking for a grid ref.

[Lophophaps]

Thanks, was unsure. There's so many distinctive features that have no names ... I had to get out my 1:50 and check where I went skiing, just a vague memory now. The next pic is in Victoria.
