Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Sat 19 Jan, 2019 9:45 pmYep it's the viking, just below the summit (on the back/south side as you say) looking over the Barry mtns. Short detour from the route to south viking.Lophophaps wrote:Viking? The angle of the slope seems wrong, or maybe you are on the back slope, where the track goes up and down through all those rocks.

Posted: Sun 20 Jan, 2019 6:02 amThanks. While I have not been there for ages, the angle, rock type and hills looked familiar. In Victoria.

Is that the mighty Mount Bogong in the front...

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Tue 22 Jan, 2019 2:53 pmNope. I'm facing away from Bogong, which is more or less behind me. The summit has no trees. If it proves too hard to guess the mountains in view then guess the summit.

Posted: Tue 22 Jan, 2019 2:55 pmLop, I was just having a joke. I have no idea to be honest.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Tue 22 Jan, 2019 3:44 pmAfter 2.5 days and one guess I'll respond to anything. First clue. This is on a major track that leads to Bogong, which can be seen if one turns around. Of course Jagungal can be seen from Bogong ...

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Tue 22 Jan, 2019 6:10 pmCorrect, looking south-westish. Here's the full pic, trimmed to remove the pole and road.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Tue 22 Jan, 2019 8:22 pmActually it was the road and the faint outline of the Crosscut Saw with the Viking at back that led to my suggestion.
Next one is a scan of a photo from SA.
Where were we?

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 23 Jan, 2019 12:06 pmYes - I was after St Marys Peak. And I had noticed the nice shot in this months comp.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 23 Jan, 2019 1:48 pmHa yep thought I’d be a bit cheeky and put that in the December comp (not supposed to be up there in December). Figured I justified doing the Wilpena Pound Circuit (+ St Mary Pk) considering my experience, leaving at 4:30am, getting back by 7am and beating the heat.
Lets stay in SA. What peak am I looking at?

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Thu 24 Jan, 2019 10:49 amIt might be a tricky one - as in a view of St Marys Peak?
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Thu 24 Jan, 2019 12:24 pmSomewhere in Mt Remarkable National Park looking west into the Gulf
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Thu 24 Jan, 2019 9:57 pmMaybe a bit tricky eggs (perhaps not for you though)
Neither is right but eggs in closer. I've added a wider shot taken a minute later

Actually I have changed my mind and will pay that peregrinator. I was looking for Binya Peak (silhouette on top right) but the rock in view on bottom right of photo has technically given you the win
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Fri 25 Jan, 2019 6:17 pmMy answer might have been more appropriate if I'd actually read your original question! I had assumed the name of the peak from where the shot was taken was to be identified.
Speaking of multiple peaks, what are the names of this Victorian pair (either side of the main saddle)?

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Sat 26 Jan, 2019 5:36 pmNeil, them's the ones. The one on the left is actually Gorrin (there are other references in the district to that name), but Ghorin and Ghiran do seem to go together. Viewed from a few kilometres south of Buangor State Park.
