I kept looking at that, knowing I knew it and then it finally clicked.

Still in Dubberland, still under snow. I'm about to camp on the side of a mountain. Which one?

Hmmm, I think you are looking east toward Mt Perisher. Possibly right before you start toward Twynam from Mt Anton.

Going to have to pay that - Anton is what I was after, although I'm still on its northern side.

Thanks NNW. There are a few fence lines up there. I always wondered why they were never removed after they canned grazing on the range. Could be soil con fences maybe.

NSW - where am I?

It's a great area to go exploring. Here is a Birdsnest not too far from Nichols Gorge in NSW

I quickly checked some old maps and nothing is jumping out at me. It could have something to do with either the mine sites in the area or more likely the tunnel that runs underneath from Happy Jacks pondage to Eucumbene.

Still in NSW - where was this taken?

Something to do with the construction of the original Snowys Hydro scheme.

ps: your latest shot is Cootapatamba, isn't it? Maybe from Etheridge ridge?
