It was the quartzite Rick. Bit exposed for a campsite :shock:

Where am I in my avatar photo? I'm in an irenic canyon.

Anyone who's been down that way has seen the beauty of the stone. I'm sure David Leaman must have remarked upon this part of Tassie.

Neither NNW but I could see Collins Bonnet from here.

Yes Rick. I hadn't planned to wander down Thark Ridge this far but kinda went off course for a bit.
Didn't go all the way to Montagu so I may do that next time I visit.

It's a brilliant little walk especially along Montagu Thumbs

Where am I here? There is a lake/tarn in the centre of the photo

Anyone else playing??
I had original wondered about Lake Hayes, but checking from the Watcher confirmed a negative - but then I looked at the other end and rotated...
So maybe Hayes from Naturalist Peak?

That's it eggs. Very satisfying to make you go to that much trouble.

Wonder how easy it would be to get down there...
