Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[crollsurf]

Bingo, Horseshoe Falls it is, over to you eggs

[eggs]

Thanks

Name of this range in SA? Bonus for any of the peak names.

Heysen Range from Aroona campsite. Main peak is Mt Hayward

[GregR]

Musgrave Ranges.

[peregrinator]

Heysen Range from Aroona, Ikara NP. Edit, sorry, meant to add Mt Hayward.

[eggs]

Indeed - Mt Hayward in the Heysen Range is correct.
This is in the Northern part of the Flinders Ranges

[peregrinator]

I see that Last Post in all three threads reads eggs, eggs, eggs. Is that a record? Perhaps not, because eggs and several others here sure get around more than most.

C. Warren Bonython, in Walking the Flinders Ranges, writes of at least four “Mount Haywards”. There is Hayward Bluff, often erroneously called “Mount” Hayward, along with “South Mount Hayward” and the peak he names “False Mount Hayward”. Things can go haywire up there for climbers who have been easily misled, as Bonython says each peak is not distinctive or prominent.

This marker looks like it might collapse eventually but was extant this January, so I’ll post this while I guess it’s still in place. What distinctive and prominent summit is it at in Victoria? (There are other such peaks in the background, so this will be easy.)

From Mt MacDonald. The Bluff in midground, Buller plateau in background.

[GBW]

Mt Macdonald?

[eggs]

All the Haywards you mention were in that view.
A few days before we had camped under Walkandi Peak which is also in that view.

Agreed GBW

[peregrinator]

Agreed, eggs. You've both got it. Good Boys Win (?).

[GBW]

Thanks peregrinator, that cairn has got bigger since I was there but The Bluff hasn't changed. Vic...

[bernieq]

Looks like Bogong in the distance so taken from the side of Feathertop or the Razorback?

[eggs]

I doubt its Bogong, but Razorback sounds right.
I think its looking South West-ish possibly near Champion Spur

[bernieq]

Yes, I think you're correct - looking SW - this is one of mine from before the fires (2010) - from somewhere near Diamantina Spur (I think).

this pic is not part of the game

[GBW]

2014 on the Razorback just south of Champion Spur. You had it bernieq but eggs was spot on so you two can decide who's next.

[eggs]

bernieq should go next

[bernieq]

... since you insist ...

What's the name of this pile of rock? in Victoria.

[neilmny]

Hmmm Mt Buffalo on the horizon???????????????

[bernieq]

Well spotted, neilmny - Buffalo is on the horizon - a distinctive profile usually but I thought this photo was a bit hazy.

[eggs]

The Viking?

[bernieq]

You are good at this, aren't you !

Yes, the Viking - looking 10deg east of true north. Not a usual angle as the shortest route between Viking and Sth Viking is a little further east.

All your's, eggs.

[eggs]

Greatly helped by neilmny
Then comparing photos from the Crosscut Saw / Mt Howitt area

Back to Queensland

Wallaman Falls near Ingham

[crollsurf]

Wallaman Falls?

[eggs]

Yes crollsurf

[crollsurf]

Thanks eggs. Planning to get up that way in a couple of months. Until then, more NSW I'm afraid

Lost Cities looking North from the lookout, Newnes State Forest, NSW

[Tyreless]

Looks like somewhere around the Wollangambe, but I can't place it precisely.

[michael_p]

I was thinking Lost City area. That's my best guess.

[crollsurf]

Looks like somewhere around the Wollangambe, but I can't place it precisely.

You've narrowed it down quickly Tyreless. This is in the neighbouring State Forest.

[crollsurf]

I was thinking Lost City area. That's my best guess.

That is also the right guess Michael. Lost Cities from the lookout looking North, Your go

[michael_p]

Thanks Crollsurf. Lucky guess really.

NSW - Name the ridge I was on or the hills in the distance.

[johnw]

Bobs Ridge looking towards the Rams Head range.
