Closer.
I never said I was heading for the Abel that's out of view.

Heading off Chalice Lake track - your peak out of view might be Bishop?

Colder again. Nor is Bishop an Abel.

This is interesting as I really thought this one would go fairly quickly, given the regular use the track in question gets.

Colder again. I do sometimes use fairly well-trodden tracks to get to suitable points to head off elsewhere.

At last we're on the right track, but on the wrong bit of it. I'm not climbing onto a peak.

Are you looking up at the end of The Great Pine Tier from near Lake Ball. That would have the ridge leading to Mt Jerusalem.

Not looking towards the GPT or Jerusalem although if I was where you said and I was facing the same compass heading as in the shot, I would be looking up towards them.

Maybe the other end of the Lake Ball track? At or near the intersection with the Junction Lake track, facing ENE-ish with the left ridge leading towards King Davids Peak (which is an Abel)?

Close enough. I left the track near the saddle at the western end of Ball, heading south, and this is looking north.

My only walk along there I was more fascinated with Lake Ball and those cushion plants near the west end, don't think I even looked north. Were you heading for that small tarn?

Good thing there aren't too many peaks with helipads and trigs that close together.

Is that just a hop, skip and a jump from Mt Jukes? On Proprietary Peak?
