Yes, that's the one.
This photo is of a popular place in the NT. It's a named track, and the photo is taken from a different named track:

ribuck wrote:Is your photo taken in Fringe Lily Creek? It would certainly be an exhausting day trip if you started from Birthday Waterhole, went up Fringe Lily Creek (climbing around the bottom pool), then completed the circuit by joining the Larapinta and coming back across the razorback and down Spencer Gorge.
icefest wrote:This is not Fringe Lilly creek. Were we planning on having a look at Fringe Lilly Creek the day after this trip. Do you know if that pool has a waterfall that you need to leave the watercourse for?
ribuck wrote:There's one other spot I know which looks a bit like your photo. Start by heading upstream from the Hugh Gorge 4wd road-end. At the first creek junction, fork left (west) to leave the Larapinta Trail and enter a tributary which has water a short way up. This is part of an energetic circuit that takes you up onto the range, to the highest point in the vicinity.As far as I know, this creek is not named, therefore it's unlikely to be the feature that you're asking about, but it's all I've got.
