Blue skies outside, but I'm still in the mood for snow. This one is south of the border, however. A straightforward Where Am I?

I was tempted to put this up, but it's probably a bit too Lophophapsish.

Nice view from Feathertop

Pffft. Where but Feathertop would you get a cornice like that?

I guess so - but then that would be only slightly like a Lopo entry..

To qualify ideally it should be of a feature/place that no longer exists and/or no one other than the poster has ever seen, and cannot be found on any map past or present - preferably photographed at night :lol:

Mt Stapylton, maybe from Mt Zero?

Quite so - to both answers :)

Are you in the Wooroonooran National Park, near Josephine Falls maybe?

Neither but you are in the general area, not too far away.

I first thought of the creek area leaving Babinda Boulders - but I could not find a photo to match. But maybe??

Similar looking just here, but no. You are much closer however, keep heading north.

I have posted from this location before, but looking upstream.

Those rocks remind me of Nooldoonooldoona Waterhole.

This one is not in the Flinders Ranges.
The place name is a waterfall.

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

Shares its name with a nearby town - on the River Murray

Mannum waterfalls?

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

Mon 20 May, 2019 3:56 pm

That's the spot. Not far from the Murray, this cuts through a line of granite to drop through a large jumble of boulders.
Was just a trickle in October, but some nice deep pools at various levels.

Thanks eggs. I haven't seen it at any more than a trickle. Nice place to visit though.

Back to NSW, hopefully an easy spot to name...

Looks coastal, I'm thinking Durras, Batemans Bay, Tuross region. From memory the start of the Bingi Dreaming track was something like this.

It is a coastal swamp but not in those regions mentioned. I'm after the name of the swamp.

Bump and hint... southern NSW

Still struggling with this one, as are others judging from the number of views.
I assume it must be further down the south coast than my previous thoughts.
I found a vague reference in a park management document for Nadgee Wilderness - Howe Swamp?

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

Thu 23 May, 2019 4:54 pm

It's in that region. For some it's an important water collection point on a popular coastal walk.

Are you in the Ben Boyd NP?
