Maybe Cosy Corner Beach, West Cape Howe near Albany?
Near the southern end of the Bibbulmun I believe.

Haven't moved far. Looking along the Nattai River Valley towards the Blue Mountains in the distance. The round lump of Mt Jellore in the centre distance.
Where Am I is not mandatory for Aussie game but taken maybe from somewhere around Mt Alexandra or Gibbergunyah?

Thanks Last. I walk around that general area from time to time. If I don't want to drive it's a pleasant ~90 minute train trip from my place through the countryside for a lazy day out.

Greg, After considering the clues I decided to research your relatively recent traumatic adventure. Which led me to Mt Larcom?

Indeed it is John.
Otherwise known in my family as Brokeback Mountain.
Mercifully I can now head up to Feathertop to see if I can now carry an overnight Pack again to celebrate New Years eve.

Thank you Greg, good luck with your walk. Hopefully I'll be up to similar feats in a few months.
Next is from an Australian territory, but not the one I'm currently visiting. Name either the peak I'm on or the island in the middle distance. One should probably divulge the other in any case:
