Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[north-north-west]

WAG - Far Bald from Happy Jacks Plain?

[Zapruda]

Not Far Bald. Further north.

[north-north-west]

No, I got that tangled up. Tabletop?

[Zapruda]

Further north than Tabletop. This peak is rarely climbed.

[johnw]

Mount Nattung?

[Zapruda]

No but getting closer.

[johnw]

Howells Peak?

[Zapruda]

Not Howells. This is a few hundred meters higher.

[north-north-west]

It's the right shape for Blackfellows Hill but I think that's too low. Nattung?

[Zapruda]

It’s not Blackfellows or Nattung.

Your guesses are on the correct side of the snowy mountains highway. The peak I’m looking at is a little off the beaten path.

[johnw]

Can't find any ~1700m high points in my search range. So might still be too low, but I'll try Tom O'Rourkes Peak.

[Zapruda]

Not Tom O’Rourkes.

There is a whole other section of the park that you are all missing. Often gets forgotten about.

Bogong Peaks did occur to me earlier but the single peak above a plain in the photo doesn't really lend itself to that area?

[Zapruda]

Bogong Peaks is correct. Good job.

Great views up there but a horrendous, scrubby climb

It was taken from the Mosquito Creek FT just past Hainsworth hut.

Thanks. This is in the ACT:

Wow, that's over 16 km from Hainsworth hut. I looked at Bogong Peaks earlier but dismissed it as too far. Photo looks much closer.

[Zapruda]

I was pretty heavily zoomed in. A bit of compression going on.

err.... but not all of the photo is in the ACT

[Zapruda]

Are you on the Scabby Range?

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Are you on the Scabby Range?

No but could see it from here

I should dig out a map before commenting, but I that rock reminds me of Morgan.

Morgan is in NSW, this is ACT... but I'm only a few hours walk from Morgan

Thanks, would not have got it without the clues, and some map study.

Something different, what is the distant feature in NSW? Clue - It's a protected area:

Looking towards Cook Island (Nature Reserve) off Tweed Heads NSW

Yes I thought yo must have been on a cherry picker at Burleigh Heads by how close the Island looked!!!

Old favourite dive spot of mine when I taught diving up that way late 80's.


This one's from Victoria.

A very wet and miserable day. 4 of us trying to dry out our gear at which location.
