Reckon I'll kick myself over this one. Can't think of any plane wrecks there, or cryptic solutions, but are we looking at Olympus South and Little Hugel??

Well that's one of my favourite Tassie walks below to Emily Tarn and Mt Snowy. So you're somewhere on Hartz Peak.

Yep, not far from the summit. Lovely area, indeed. I shouldn't have left it nearly 40 years between visits.
