Nescient? No, surely it can't be, you don't get that clear a view. Well, I didn't.

It lined up perfectly over the shoulders of Dean Bluff and Pelion East but I just don't remember being able to get such a clear view, even right out on the edge of the scarp. Another one I have to get back to in good weather.

Admin:
Is there some way we can handicap eggs in this game?

I don't see a hut ... OK., OK, so the hut is behind me. You're just no fun any more.

I normally hold back, but I was fascinated by that tree and thought I might also have a shot of it.
I had not expected Dixons Kingdom Hut - but there it was..

This is on a "track"

Assuming you are referring to the old track at Sandfly Creek - that is correct.

It might do as you're in the right quadrant - but it's still the wrong place.

And the interstate chap gets it. This is an oldish shot, but it could easily have been taken with the game in mind.

Only thing that seemed to line up. My one trip there we walked up top via Carr Villa but decided to return the same way and avoid the road.
Looks more interesting that I had imagined.
