Too true...
The name pretty much matches what you see...
I earlier thought of Cave Creek at Bargo, which would align with your clue? Haven't been there but have read about it (maybe in one of Sloss's guides?)
That's it, although at Hill Top, not all that far from walks starting at Wattle Ridge, Starlights et al. This is an easy short stroll down into the cave then around to below the waterfall where the creek exits the cave. Massive bush fire damage now but they have cleared the track to make it navigable. Yes, pretty sure it's in one of the Sloss guides I have.

Yep close enough... bit further down the spur from ayre, near where the white track turns steeply north from memory(looking upstream)

Thanks, I have the same shot from the White track, should have said looking upstream.
NSW again with apologies, I'll try and unearth a different state next one:
- Ahearns Lookout, Nattai NP via Hill Top NSW

I’m not sure but if you look into that rock face on the left you will see a perfect Gorillas face.
Ok I’ll have a guess while I’m here. Are you on the Ettrema about to approach the Yalwal Creek junction.

haha hadn't seen that.
Not Ettrema, no

Doesn't look right but reminds me a bit of the Nattai around Emmetts Flat.

Yep that's it, looking back up at Ahearns

Ah, all my photos seem to be from a different angle. I visited Ahearns last year but haven't been down in the valley there for ages.
I promised to find a non-NSW shot. Name this peak in QLD:
- Mt Cordeaux, Main Range NP via Cunninghams Gap QLD

Yeah, I did hear the gold tops are next level this year...Enjoy!

Time for a clue to narrow it down:
In the main, this area is known for its named high points and voids, or words to that effect.
Wed 30 Sep, 2020 2:54 pm
Not sure about your clues?
I do remember driving along and the sudden great drop away of Cunningham Gap.
But Mount Cordeaux ?

Maybe somewhat cryptic eggs, I probably watched too many episodes of the Masked Singer.
"main" = Main Range NP, "named high points" = several peaks within that NP, "voids" = syn. for gaps, Cunninghams, Spicers, Gap Creek.
Regardless of all that Mount Cordeaux is correct, passed on our way to Bare Rock from Cunninghams Gap.

Thanks John
Name this peak in SA

St Marys Peak?
Fri 02 Oct, 2020 8:51 am
Not far from St Marys - but this one is quite a bit smaller. It just sticks out a bit more prominently from the range line and hence its name.
Fri 02 Oct, 2020 9:12 am
Mt Abrupt.
Fri 02 Oct, 2020 10:11 am
Yes. Mt Abrupt at sunrise.

Another pic from SA. What is the name of the ruins in the foreground?
- Umberutna Outstation, below the Elder Range

That's it, north-north-west. Between Hawker and Wilpena Pound, on the Heysen Trail. Elder Range to the west.
Sat 03 Oct, 2020 3:20 pm
That's an interesting section of the Heysen. Quite a few old chimney stacks along the way to Mayo. Nice easy walking, too.
I'm sticking with SOz. A simple "where am I?"

Reminds me of the camp area at Italowie Gorge, on the Copley—Balcanoona Road.

Good remindering. That's where it was. Back to you.
