Surprised this hasn't gone, it's in a popular area. I can narrow it down to Blue Mountains.

Closer but not quite. I'm probably a solid day's walk from there, but in the same general area.

[Scratches head] I've really broken it this time, or everyone is away, or lost interest.
I assume that's not a serious answer, so I'll give another clue instead of pound-ing my head against the wall.
There are a small number of Norse beings etc around here, although this isn't one of them.

No, but very close. Check clues - it's not a Norse entity.

Thanks, I find the Blue Mtns can be hard because the views are similar, so it's hard to be sure you've got the right location.

That's correct although not the answer I expected haha. It's looking north from pretty plain hut (which granite knob track goes through)

I'd like to think I'll see more of northern KNP before I get too old but yet to happen.
I found a near identical shot on a recognised amateur photographer's site. He has some stunning photos of that area.

Still NSW, name at least two features, or one feature and my location:
