Getting closer. :? Maybe it's just me who loves this particular corridor! (Actually, my mate Rod definitely likes going this way as well.) Cool green avenue in summer, alight in autumn, with a fagus-leaf carpet in winter, and leaves frozen in ice.

That's the spot, just after the Face Track junction. It really is lovely. :)

Thanks Tortoise, hopefully I'll check it out at some point.
After Hansons Peak I've always gone either via the Face Track or Twisted Lakes/Hanson.

Is there a waterline horizon in the distance, or is that my eyes playing tricks?

Not Cathedral Plateau, but you're not a world away. This lake is on a track and has a name.

You're a little closer, but you need to head north.

Sorry Rexy, you need to go a lot further north than that. It's quite a unique feature at this lake. Here's another shot at the same place, with apologies to my headless friend:
