Thanks Thornbill, nice feeling when your go with your gut and it's right for once.

Where was I when I caught this fleeting glance at the surrounding mountains?

That's the Weld ridge to the right of centre, and the only spot you'd get that angle on it with a lake below would be on Hartz.

Please add a healthy dose of 'I think' to the above.

It might be looking at Weld [plus Lots Wife and Nevada Peak] over North Lake of Mt Picton?

Picton was my first thought, but I don't remember a lake down there.

Well - I have to rely on the LIST, having never been there. It shows the lake and its adjacent flats.

Hmmm I see Hugel and Rufus and what I guess could be Hermoine... perhaps from Gould's Sugarloaf?

Close enough - we were on the way out to Gould's Sugarloaf - probably near "the Tree" and before the Little Sugarloaf.

???
It has a Labyrinth sort of feel . . . or maybe northern Traveller/Orion Lakes . . . but the shape of that big lump of dolerite at the back doesn't ring any bells . . .

Near the summit of Mt Olympus, near all the tarns? (haven't been there myself so I'm totally guessing)

An area like the Labyrinth with Hugel as a back drop?
Maybe the Cheyne Range and its numerous tarns?

That is pencilled in for the future - God willing.
We actually turned back from the approach to the Cheyne Range and ended up doing an alternative earlier this year.

Next one then.
