You got it, crollsurf. You're too good at this.

Unfortunately that nicely-groomed tent pad is right next to a "No Camping" sign.

Thanks ribuck, I'd say there are more than a few with a higher strike rate than me, included would be yourself.
I'm going to be busy and off-grid for the next week, so best someone else jumps in to keep the game going

And rightly so John because that’s precisely the location.
Go ahead, mate.

Thanks puredingo, I remember the aerobics negotiating those giant boulders :).

Let's try one from QLD since I'm heading there tomorrow:

I assume you mean the one in the Daintree region eggs, which is correct.

That's not the Scenic Rim? So one could be Mt Warning?

There's a volcano there that was so enormous that it's remnant caldera extends way out to sea.

Mt Warning is NSW. These are in Queensland.

Lindesay is one - which I believe is actually on the border, but the other [2 headed monster] is not Maroon

Thanks eggs. I've never been to the Scenic Rim but I have been to johnw's Mt Alexandra Lookout but didn’t recognise it.

My bushwalking range is limited to mostly day walks, which means we are stuck with NSW photos. So this is from NSW:

thanks Tyreless

What I most recognised was the road cutting and then the landslide at the back of solitary.

I am also somewhat restricted on photos - where in NSW was I today?

I'll hazard a guess... looking back towards Malaita Point near the bottom of Causeway Creek?
