Yes, I'm still yet to do the South Pictons. If that road ever re-opens I'l probably be there the next day!

I saw something like this on Flinders Island but I don't think I could see Adamsons Peak from there.

This is stackys bight on flinders you are right about that.
I can see the similarities in the background but it certainly isn't Adamsons.

I'll take that as a win, I guess. I recognised the feature straight away but then I doubted myself because I really thought that was Adamsons Peak in the background.

Yes, it is, just after I lost my hat while pushing through the scrub around Franklin River.

Yep! I recently read that a taller tree was found in Borneo which has knocked Centurion back to 3rd on the list of tallest tree's in the world.

Really? I've seen some photos after it burnt. Hopefully the old thing survives a while longer as it was still actively growing.
