Blue Peaks Track Coordinates?

And after that little conversation,I am just sooo glad Ollie doesn't visit the main forum.

Oh he's all OVER it on FB....... check

[north-north-west]

I wouldn't now where to look. Even if I wanted to.

have been in there four or five times, and last time got bushed after the first 500 metres or so at the creek/rocky area. Keeping to the right/west is best to pick up the track aganin.
Alternatively, dont leave the road by the old cement slab, but walk an extra couple of hundred metres up the gravel road. There will be a very small rock cairn that marks the start of the track, and once you find that you avoid the rocky creek bed that makes the "shortcut" from the cement slab dificult.
pretty easy from that point on and plent of rock markers as long as you stay alert.
enjoy!

Hi

I have put up on OSM the track to Middle Lake that follows I believe the old Unimog Track from Lake Mackenzie. It is more an approximate than definitive path. It will get you up top and from there it is pretty much follow your nose to the Blue Peaks (the taller one). Best to turn off earlier (no more than 1/3 of the way) and come up the back way rather than going around further. Also I have marked in the peak as from the back way you will be lured by a false peak about 500 metres away from the real one. Lovely part of the world but can be a bit open and exposed. On the way out the temperature dropped from seven degrees to zero or below in about ten minutes and the heavy rain went into heavy snow.

There is a second track that is about three hundred metres further up the road from the old foundations that is supposed to be a little drier. The way we went was very much a creek but it had been raining like mad. Be aware that Tasmap's track on their maps is rather out in places so only use it as a guide.

As for the loop from Lake Nameless, this was blocked by the Fisher River as it was in flood the three weeks earlier when we attempted to come that way. Yet a couple years earlier when going to Lake Nameless from Lake Mackenzie it was cross-able but with boots off.

The Fisher River can be a wild card so take care and visability can close right in forcing GPS or compass navigation but on a clear day no great challenges.

Cheers
