We went for a three day trip to Pelion East via the Arm River track.

Did you see Toad Rock while in that vicinity? ;)

That'd be Cradle, I'd say. The 'classic' view of Cradle (from the North end of Dove Lake) is quite different to the view from most of the national park.

I did wonder if it might be Cradle. I often struggle with identifying peaks in the WHA from different angles! :)

It's Cradle Mountain alright. We did not know about toad rock, sadly.
