Didnt hurt until I sat down that evening. :cry:
Had a stumble and stupid 25kg pack pushed me in the back.

Thats quite an impressive wound, I bet you got a nice little scar from that.
It looks like you are on Prion Beach with PB behind???

And of course, that happened just when there was a nice jagged rock at just the right height to stop you going any further . . .
I've had some nasty trips and slips, but never hurt the head. Yet. Usually end up banging my knees.

Anyway, back to the photo. Is that a beach I see behind you?

Yes it is, I was hoping someone who had been there and knows where I may have done it would have said, as it's a pretty dodgy area.
Coming down off PB thru the limstone caves that have alot of ferns overgrowing them just covering the holes nicely. BIG holes in the ground and I mean BIG! It's quite dodgy in places. I lost my feet down one and bang, limestone to the head.
AJscott (I think it was) on a trip thru there fell completey in one and dissapeared completely. The fellow in behind him got quite a shock.

I took a photo like this just to look at the wound, then I thought i'd take one with the culprit behind.

What are the caves like? Nice little crawls?

Re: GAME: Where am I?

One of them looked big enough to fall a fair way in....... enough to make me give it a fairly wide berth.

Vertical access, eh? Too far to carry ropes and ladders. Bugger.

You ever been sea kayaking? You could get all the way up to Cavern camp like that. :wink:

Need a lot of good weather to get that far around. A nice big yacht out from Catamaran would be easier, then paddle up New River Lagoon.

So many things to do and places to go, so little time (and money) . . .

Yes indeed! A person needs more than one lifetime.....

Yar Bap I still have a healthy scar on my head 2 years on, or is it 3? I forget now....

Anyway your up my friend :)

My guess would be that you're looking straight at Stacks Bluff?

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Otherwise it kind of reminds me of Mt Olympus (nothern summit) from somewhere north of Lake Onone (spelling).

Re: GAME: Where am I?

From memory, the scree to the right of the pic is where you head up to the summit - if my memory is correct with it being Stacks Bluff!!

Re: GAME: Where am I?

You are looking at Ragged Jack from the north.
The high point is on the left of this photo.

I second that notion. The next 3 nights wernt bad either.

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 3:29 pm

is it High Moor?

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 3:31 pm

Not High Moor - this site is far more spacious than there.
This site signifies the junction between 2 ranges...

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 4:16 pm

its gotta be between wilmot and frankland ranges, sorry cant get more technical than that

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 4:22 pm

That.s fine Frenchy.
It's just before Tribulation Ridge (in background).
Coronation Peak on the left.
We got this sort of weather almost every day for 8 days straight :D
Over to you...

Is this from Howells Bluff?

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 7:19 pm

I think it might be Mt Pillinger at the back.

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 8:10 pm

Actually I think this is from Big Gun Pass or somewhere close by. I know thats Mt Pillinger.

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Wed 14 Jul, 2010 9:15 pm

Yes I knew I recognised that mountain in the background, the shot is taken at the outlet of Lake Helios, with the Northern edge of Mt Massif in the midground.
