Another random thought - Dargals Trail/Pretty Plain?

by **GBW** » Mon 27 Feb, 2023 3:56 pm

Not Dargals, Farm Ridge or Round Mountain trails but all guesses are in fairly close proximity, Round Mountain being the closest. It's along the AAWT heading south. This area has a name as does that rocky peak.

Grey Mare/Rocky Bogong?

by **GBW** » Mon 27 Feb, 2023 4:27 pm

Correct John. I think this area is called Bogong Swamp with Rocky Bogong Hill and Grey Mare Bogong just visible behind it. What are these poles for? There were a few along this section and near Smiths Lookout.

My first thought when I saw the photo was snow poles but the number and position looks odd.
They are close to an old vehicle trail though, maybe some very deep drifts occur only in certain spots?

Overlooking Betts Creek?

The hut is used to store the machinery and electronics.
The flying fox is used to put flow sensors into the river at set points to try and estimate the actual flow per second for that river level.
The table of flow rate vs river level is used to interpolate the flow for other river levels.

Thanks for this icefest, that all makes sense. Guthega Dam is just downstream a couple of kms.
I only stumbled onto the measuring station because I was somewhat off course.

Not Betts Creek but you're not too far away. Just need the landform name.

Maybe Kangaroo Ridge?

Yes eggs. I've been back there a few times. Very underrated area for walking IMHO. Go up Mt Stillwell and head wherever you like from there.

by **johnw** » Fri 03 Mar, 2023 9:27 am

eggs has the floor, or anyone else can jump in...

by **eggs** » Fri 03 Mar, 2023 11:29 am

Sorry folks
Yes John - got to Stilwell but would love to have explored further.

This is from a now defunct route in the NT.

by **eggs** » Sun 05 Mar, 2023 5:04 pm

Was a popular exercise route for the locals.

by **north-north-west** » Sun 05 Mar, 2023 6:26 pm

Oh, right. Alhekulyela (hope I have the spelling correct) aka Mt Gillen.

by **eggs** » Sun 05 Mar, 2023 7:32 pm

Yes. This was the crux of Mt Gillen walk

Where the wrens hang out.

Staying in the NT. Fill in the missing names: I'm walking from ... to ... on a track.

by **north-north-west** » Thu 09 Mar, 2023 6:47 am

No-one? Not even one teensy piddling little guess? There's water there. There aren't that many places where this river has lots of lovely water in it. And the place I'm heading to has more.

by **eggs** » Thu 09 Mar, 2023 9:24 am

Looks like the Finke River and from your clue I suspect on the way to Glen Helen.
May have been coming from Ormiston Gorge?
It depends whether you were going east of west.

by **north-north-west** » Thu 09 Mar, 2023 11:58 am

Yeah, but it means I'm going from the Larapinta to Glen Helen. Thank you and have fun.

by **eggs** » Thu 09 Mar, 2023 2:40 pm

Hmm - Larapinta Trail was a given, but thanks

This is in SA.

Deep Creek Cove from Tapanappa Lookout?

by **eggs** » Fri 10 Mar, 2023 7:06 pm

Deep Creek was all I needed and the climb up is in view, but you cannot see the cove from Tapanappa.
Over to you.

I wish people on the internet would label their photos correctly. I found several almost exact matches claiming to be from Tapanappa LO :roll:

Is this the waterfall below Mobbs Soak that feeds into the Coxs?

by **eggs** » Mon 13 Mar, 2023 10:11 pm

With that angle on the Thurat Spires, might be above Kanangra Falls?
