Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Sentinel Hill?

Sentinel can't be seen, is likely obscured by the spur in the foreground?

[Chev]

Haughton?

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Haughton?

Sentinel was closer, both responses are within 2-3 k's of the answer.

[ribuck]

It all looks ... different and unusual, for such a familiar place.

I'm going to make a wild guess and say that the part of Shrouded Gods that's in view is the rocky bit in the lower-left of the photo, and it's Darri Head in the right foreground. I have been wondering whether the fires will have opened up Darri Pass as a viable route again, after a few decades of it being virtually impenetrable.

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Sorry not Darri head either

Sturgiss Mountain?

Sturgiss Mountain?

Much closer now, but still not quite

Have to study the map for anything Budawangs. My next guess was Mt Elliott?

Yep got there in the end. Looking down the Kilpatrick Ck valley across Hollands Gorge to Shrouded Gods, Donjon Mtn etc. Taken maybe 4-500m downstream from Sluice Box Falls, Mt Elliott on the right

Thanks, I have to thank everyone else for narrowing it down.

Still NSW, what am I looking at?

Looking towards Medusa Falls, downstream of Arethusa Falls, from an unnamed lookout south of Dr Dark's Cave,
Blue Mountains NP via Leura NSW

[jonnosan]

Is that the view of horseshoe falls from somewhere near Govett's Leap Lookout?

[GregG]

I think you are definitely in the right part of the BMs Jonnosan, I reckon it could be looking at Govetts from somewhere near Fortress L/O using a long lens.

[GregG]

Or the same except from Point Pilcher.

You are both in the right valley but not Govetts or Horseshoe Falls.
I'm not at, or looking at, Govetts Leap, or Point Pilcher.
Greg is on the right track with Fortress and a zoom shot. But what falls am I looking at?

[FatCanyoner]

I'm not sure what that waterfall is called, but it's the one downstream of Arethusa Falls. Photo taken from the end of the ridge south of Darks Cave.

Correct all round Tim. I walked down to Dr Dark's Cave afterwards. I'm led to believe that it's informally known as Medusa Falls. Over to you.

[FatCanyoner]

It's a great little lookout. And nice to learn the name of those falls.

I'm not going to have a chance to find a photo for a day or two, so can someone else post?

I suggest that GregG posts as next closest, otherwise jonnosan. Both were in the right vicinity.

[FatCanyoner]

As no one has taken up the vacancy, here's one from NSW.

[ribuck]

It's a pass off Narrowneck, right? I will hazard a guess that it's Redledge Pass, even though the ledge doesn't look very red.

[FatCanyoner]

Spot on!

[GregG]

Ribuck, I have a Where-Is-It (Aussie) to put up if you you need time to find something suitable, what say you?

[ribuck]

Go for it, GregG! I'm currently walking the English coastline, and it's not always easy to access my photos.

[GregG]

I'm very envious Ribuck, good on you. I guess this means we can anticipate some challenging Where-am-I (International) pictures in the future.

So here's a spot in NSW.

[johnw]

This is one of those frustrating ones where I think I've been there but can't quite place it.
I've mentally travelled from the Glow Worm Tunnel to the Blair Athol Mine to the Boxvale Tramway to Cave Creek.
Don't believe it's any of those so let's try to narrow it down. Is it in the Blue Mountains Greg?

[GregG]

Yes. Indeed. Not too far away from one of those.

[GregG]

Maybe it looks familiar because you have been there but there are also lots of pictures of this spot on the web. And yes, there is a tunnel not very far from this location.

I think this could be The Dry Canyon/Nobles Canyon near the Glow Worm Tunnel.
I may have done it but it would be many years ago.

[GregG]

Hmmm, I am starting to think we need a handicap system.. haha, John, you a right again. I tried to make that a hard one too. I went up to Dry Canyon middle of last year, quite good value for what it is viz. an easy walk. Went on from there and did the usual Glow Worm Tunnel and Old Coach Road loop.
But I'm sorry to say John: back to you.

Thank you Greg, I really need to get back out that way again.

NSW, this might be hard or very easy. I'm not sure which.
General location is good enough. Bonus points if you know what it is or its history:

Mystery railway/tramway relics off the Megalong Valley Road, Megalong Valley via Blackheath NSW
