Feel no guilt, Tortoise, I left it there for you to grab.
I’m lost on this one though!

Edit: Bryan’s beach?

Right part of the world, but this is a more-often visited beach than Bryans...

Yup!! I cropped out the other Hazards so it wasn't tooooo easy, but I thought the hundreds of footprints and the boats would give it away pretty quickly.

To be honest I was going to say Wineglass but the mountains didn't look right!

Something different... Where was I?

That looks like Nereus and Eldon Peak in the background which would put you on the Du Cane Range somewhere, but that ridge line in the foreground is putting me off a bit. Perhaps the Du Cane High Point?

Correct Geevesy, also correct Eggs. Taken from the DuCane high point. The notorious Nereus in the centre. Hyperion is just out of shot to the right and Eros to the left. Also visible on the horizon are the Tyndalls and Mt Dundas.

Yes figured it was the ridge to Hyperion, Q.E.D. the photo was not taken from Hyperion!

How about this unusual sight a few days ago...

It sure is Oakleigh however it’s from the camping areas at the back of Pelion hut.

I reckon you’re looking at me about to head up to the side of those cliffs on the left.
Night 2 was shocking. Those platforms act as a drum skin.

Hehehe yeh mate thats P.West. I think by this stage though you'd have been back on the OT heading back to camp. This was taken on the way back from Proteus in the valley below at around 1pm.

Back to you!

Ok cool, Just checked my photos I was up top at 11.30am or so. So I was heading back downish... certainly doesn’t take long smashing downhill through the scrub once you’ve become used to Pelion west’s boulders!
So where was I?
