On 10 January 1966, Peter Sims, Malcolm Grant, Helen Dean, Michael Larner, John Collins and Arnold Rowlands were on the slopes of Murphys Bluff taking photos of Lake Pedder:


Recently, I found the rock that Peter (red shirt) was standing on, and took a similar photo:


I was also in the area because on 10 February 1952, Chris Binks, Dave Pinkard and Norm Hoyle camped on the plains below, before they passed the same rock on their way to climb The Citadel. I took the photo below, taken from the same point as the red-shirt photos, because it showed Diamond Peak, and Chris and Dave had been that way in 1951. I'd like to know what the peak is on the right. I think it is either Flame Peak or Innes High Rock. I may be able to weave that photo into Chris Bink's story about Lake Pedder.

I'd say it's the Spires.

Red circle is flame peak. Blue is the Spires.

It would have to be The Spires, surely? Innes High Rocky would be hidden behind it.

Thanks. So the circled feature is Flame Peak/The Spires.

I forgot to ask about the prominent distant mountain on the left of the full photo. Mt Humboldt?

Yep that's Humboldt. One of the meanest peaks in Tassie.
