Mt Doris area. Initially I thought the unnamed peak to the north of Pelion East, but I can see a ridge extending out from the boulder on the right. You're not high enough to be heading up Ossa proper. And I do remember a large number of cushion plants in that area.

The answer is in there Adam but the logic is flawed, have another go....

I'm not bothering much with this game since I moved all my photos to another computer. So many photos, I needed a dedicated photo computer.
Now I have nothing to reference with. Yes, I have my mind - my memory. As I said, now I have nothing to reference to...
Perhaps it is the unnamed peak to the north of Pelion East - I certainly remember a good view of Lake Ayr from there.

getting further away....

Whoa, forget that.
You're looking down on Oakleigh and it's 1286, at least now I can place the bigger boulders.
Yes, OSSA !!

Yay...not far below the summit plateau of OSSA!

In the true spirit of the movie Avatar, "I see you"...

: I found this one skulking around on the hard drive.

What an awful photo to have laying around on your hard drive.

Are you maybe on Cathederal Mtn??

by **tasadam** » Mon 21 Jun, 2010 5:46 pm

I'm not on a mountain, but between two. Some might recognize this photo as one similar to one I've displayed before.
This is actually a hack edit, I adjusted the levels to bring in a bit of foreground detail, then knocked the quality right down so as to make it upload-friendly. And that was an edit from the basic JPG from the camera, perhaps I should fire up the photo computer and see if I can impress you. Guess what I bought...

Not having been to the area I can only go on what I've seen in pictures and from afar. Ossa on the left, Peast on the right, can see pwest and barn thru the gap,
Somewhere near ducane hut??

by **eggs** » Mon 21 Jun, 2010 7:33 pm

[That will be Paddy's Nut left of Pelion West through the Gap - not Barn Bluff]

I suspect this may be a bit pedantic - but I presume you mean you were between Cathedral and the Twin Spires?

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Mon 21 Jun, 2010 7:37 pm

Isnt the ducane hut between those 2 mtns??

by **eggs** » Mon 21 Jun, 2010 7:59 pm

You really will have to scoot into parts of the OT Mark :wink:

Ducaine Hut is way down low on the lower side of Castle Crag.
It is fairly well surrounded by forest - though I think you can see Cathedral & might get a glimpse of Pelion East .
There is no way you would be able to see Pelion West through Pelion Gap - which is much higher.

This might give you a better idea of the arrangement:

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Mon 21 Jun, 2010 8:13 pm

Ok, thanks for that! Nice pic btw.
I do have plans to get in there... sometime. I have done the Hugel circuit and Cheyne/Gell

by **tasadam** » Mon 21 Jun, 2010 8:30 pm

Sorry, I've been away, had to go make a picture frame for a customer.
So yes Eggs is right but I feel I am being a bit too pedantic if I cannot give Cathedral as a correct answer, certainly no great distance away.
So maybe whoever posts a pic first? I dunno.
Mark, Eggs is right. Do the Overland track. Nike. I mean, Just do it!

Actually, here's a photo from the same spot with Cathedral in the foreground... Demonstrating the good use of Tyvek.

Since Mark hasn't jumped in - next one

Not exactly sure - but there might be something man made in this one...

Yeh you were much closer than I with the last one Brian.

Is this a peak I climbed recently?? :lol:

by **eggs** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 8:03 am

You might have passed a tower on the way up? But where am I?

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 8:06 am

Yer theres a couple of possabilities there, are you at Gowrie Park?

by **eggs** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 9:48 am

Yes - we were camping there. Nice spot

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 10:19 am

Sure is, I've stayed at the accommodation place, very nice for $15 a night, showers, stoves etc etc.

Bottom of West Wall looking @ Solomon's Throne ?

Sorry Eott, Not from the WOJ

by **Phil** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 11:26 am

My initial thoughts were north east......sort of looks like Stacks Bluff area......maybe somewhere towards that end of the Ben Lomond plataeu?

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 11:29 am

Not Ben Lomond either Phil

by **stepbystep** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 12:30 pm

Blackwood?

by **tasadam** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 3:44 pm

Tassie sure has a LOT of rocks...

by **ILUVSWTAS** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 4:22 pm

Yeh you got it Dan.

Must remember some of you do look at my FB pics....

by **stepbystep** » Tue 22 Jun, 2010 5:06 pm

Hey see my memory isn't that bad....
