Haha um yes, of course I knew... :( The clue in Andrews signature, then Egg's guess, then my wrong guess really gave it away.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok lets see what I can find....

OK, I'll bite.
Looks Eastern Arthur-ish - maybe looking to Thwaites Plateau from Four Peaks area???

Nice looking section of duck boarding running through the middle there.

It does look like the Spiro range behind too so I think SBS is onto something...

I initially thought High Moor then thought no, maybe it is EA's. :oops:
Must be taken from on or near Dorado Peak then.
Still certainly Spiro range behind.

edit: I hate this game sometimes, not guessing places that you've been to :oops:

I thought High Moor also but I can't place those duck boards.
It is easier to go down a hill than up, but the view is much better at the top.

Stu - you are very good at this you know :)

This will not be from Dorado - but it will probably be from the first top on the way to Dorado - hence the sharp angle past Mt Columba to the Spiro Range
I had wondered about duck board but did not see it initially.
The big question is where are the tent platforms? I have not been to High Moor, but I suspect they are nestled in on the right hand side hidden by the rock outcrop.

A good team effort. It is indeed on the way to Dorado, The high point just before dropping down to the climb up to the peak. I still can see the boards... :lol: Eggs yes the tent platforms are tucked in the right, as close to the minimal shelter this site offers.

Now, who got in first... ??? First to post a pic between SBS Stu and Eggs :)

Did you pick this one to put Mark off the scent?

It is the mirror image of my shot of Byron - so that means ....
