Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[johnw]

I was thinking perhaps further downstream on the Colo from my previous photo - maybe near the end of the T3 trail?

Not the T3 but you are quite close.

[FatCanyoner]

Looking down at the Colo from Mailes Ridge?

[johnw]

Looking down at the Colo from Mailes Ridge?

Correct Tim, where the Colo loops around south of Mt Townsend from memory.
We were on the way back from an overnight trip to Colo Meroo some years ago.

[FatCanyoner]

I haven't walked along there, but it looks like a great ridge.

Another one from NSW. Name the walking track / valley this stone arrangement is near.

[jonnosan]

That's the St Columba's cross - off the Victory Track, in Sassafras Gully, near Springwood

[FatCanyoner]

Yep, that's the one.

[jonnosan]

If anyone wants to post something from outside NSW they can do so. otherwise I will post something from NSW tonight

[north-north-west]

OK, South Australia. Name the watercourse down below and/or the track running back up the distant ridge.

[eggs]

Tough one - shall we start the bidding with Spring Creek adjacent Mt Remarkable?

[north-north-west]

Well yes, that covers both really - Spring Creek and the Mt Remarkable Track.

[eggs]

I could not place your shot, but could only think of that area as a possibility NNW.
Great photo by the way.

Lets stay in SA.
Name the hut in view.
Bonus if you can say something about where I am.

Yanyanna hut as seen from the Heysen Trail

[GregR]

I'll open the bidding with Marshalls hut.

[peregrinator]

Yanyanna?

[eggs]

Yes - this is Yanyanna hut as seen from the Heysen Trail as it approaches - just north from Wilpena Pound.
Yet to get to Marshalls Hut.

Sorry, I forgot to respond to the last part of your proposal. It was the close proximity of both the Heysen and the Bunyeroo Road that clearly identified the spot. Now you've got me itching to get back to that area—haven't seen it since 2010.

Continuing with SA. This is from the base of which range?

Elder Range

[peregrinator]

There must be thousands of photographs of this range taken from a distance rather than at the base of the climb.

[crollsurf]

Flinders Rangers

[eggs]

Big target crollsurf.
They stretch for hundreds of km and are made of of many smaller named ranges.

[crollsurf]

I've learnt being too specific in this game can be your undoing. But yeah, I guess saying the Flinders Ranges is akin to saying The Great Dividing Range in NSW. So a Range within the Flinders?

The Bunbinyunna Range?

[peregrinator]

Eggs, not Bunbinyunna but you are very close. Don't follow Bonython on p.72.

[eggs]

I actually don't have a book by the great man.
However the photo appears to be from the road and way too far north west to be considered near Mt Ide or the tail end of the
Red Range - so I guess you were just after the Elder Range as per the big guys at the back?

[peregrinator]

Yes, 'the big guys" looming up at the rear is correct. You've got to respect your Elders. Speaking of whom, I took a wild guess that you might have WtFR, such is your ongoing acquaintance with the Flinders. But could any white bloke know it better than CWB?

My shot is from pretty much due west of Ide. Four to five kilometres from the Moralana road. When I mentioned thousands of photographs from a distance, I was actually thinking of the two main roads north from Hawker.

[eggs]

So you were on the tail end of the Red Range!

Lets stay in SA - name this mountain

Sunrise on McKinlay Bluff in the Vulkathunha - Gammons National Park

[peregrinator]

McKinlay Bluff?

(I was opposite the northern end of the Red Range, but west of there at the start of an ascent on the Elder Range.)

[eggs]

Yes - McKinlay Bluff in the Vulkathunha - Gammons National Park

[peregrinator]

This one is in Victoria. Name the distant ranges.

Mt William Range (durd-durd) & Serra Range, from Djibalara

[peregrinator]

Western Victoria.

[eggs]

My thoughts go to the Victoria Range.

[commando]

Only the Grampians look like that from Mt Cole or Mt Buangor
