I wrote "trail" where I would normally write"track". There is a reason for making that choice in this case.

You need to be patient. All the games are slowing up.
I have a shot from further in along the road to Black Gap - so you might be on the Heysen Trail near Mt Ide.
The biggest peak at back is the double headed Pompey Pillar which I was privileged to bivouac on back about 1981.

No surprise, eggs. You've got it. I was near the Umberatana ruins, not far from Mt Ide.

Page 64, Walking the Flinders Ranges, that wonderful book by C Warren Bonython, has a shot from Mt Ide which closely resembles what is in mine. L to R, Beatrice Hill, Pompeys Pillar, Dorothys Peak, Harolds Hill. I'm sure the indigenous names would not be so banal.

Will stay in SA

Name of the falls

Is a google image search against the rules/spirit? anyway I did one, and it turned up viewtopic.php?f=22&t=10702, where that picture was described as 'Second Falls at Morialta'. Looks like a gorgeous spot.

by **eggs** » Wed 28 Jun, 2017 11:56 pm

That's fine.
And yes - it is the 2nd falls at Morialta with a reasonable flow. And it was my shot too... :shock:

Cheers eggs.

Back to NSW. I expect this will not take long...

Looks like the view from The Castle, Bundawangs

by **jonnosan** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 8:31 am

Yes indeed it is. Your turn MountainMadness

Where were we on this icy day? (NSW)

by **Lophophaps** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 11:51 am

WAG, Strumbo Range? I'm pretty sure it's in KNP.

by **north-north-west** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 12:41 pm

I can't recall ever seeing a phone tower up there.

by **MountainMadness** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 12:57 pm

Yeah not up on Strumbo - but your thoughts on the general area are right

(I'll have to get up to speed on what the acronym WAG means one of these days......... thought it was to do with footballers

My Wild A***d Guess - Mt Perisher?

by **MountainMadness** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 1:21 pm

I learn something new everyday............

Your WAG paid off - yes Mt Perisher it is.

by **jonnosan** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 2:23 pm

Cheers.

I got nothing to post though. Does anyone else want to post something from Tasmania (just for a change)?

by **Lophophaps** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 4:59 pm

Tasmania you want, Tasmania you shall have.

by **north-north-west** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 5:12 pm

Bernes Valley?

by **Lophophaps** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 6:17 pm

Nope.

by **jonnosan** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 10:07 pm

hmm. Is it some kind of tree?

by **Lophophaps** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 10:23 pm

Yes, it's a tree, and it's close to a popular walk. The tree and the walk are both in Tasmania.

by **johnw** » Thu 29 Jun, 2017 10:35 pm

Walls of Jerusalem track, maybe at/near Pool of Bethesda? Or the more I look at it, could be Solomons Jewels.

by **Lophophaps** » Fri 30 Jun, 2017 6:08 am

As far as I can recall, the trees approaching and at most of the WOJ are not that big. Dixons Kingdom has big trees. You are in the right general part of the state.

by **Graham51** » Fri 30 Jun, 2017 2:51 pm

Is it at The Pool of Memories?

by **Walk_fat boy_walk** » Fri 30 Jun, 2017 3:07 pm

Reminds me of the south end of Lk Adelaide although it's been many years since I was last there so could be well off the mark?

by **Lophophaps** » Fri 30 Jun, 2017 3:37 pm

No and no. West of Adelaide, although not on the same latitude - maybe.

by **north-north-west** » Fri 30 Jun, 2017 4:46 pm

It doesn't look like what I remember of Bill, so I'm going to start with one I haven't been to - Louisa. But if that's not it, then could it be at Lake Bill?

by **Lophophaps** » Fri 30 Jun, 2017 5:12 pm

No. Try west of the WOJ region, including all the big lakes. West of Payanna, Ling Roth, Meston and Adelaide. South of the Deloraine latitude.

by **eggs** » Sun 02 Jul, 2017 2:37 pm

The planes about to leave... but the only place this reminds me of is Petrarch.
I did not see a tree like this on the wonderful grassy platforms though. How old is the photo?
If it is right, anyone can post.
