Thanks.
Where was I on this beautiful evening a couple of weeks ago?

Nah. There'll be others, even if the South Coast track is the only thing you've done - which I suspect it isn't. Watch out for 'anyone can go', when someone is going to be otherwise engaged by the time the answer is confirmed.

Thanks Tortoise (we must be related I feel that way on a lot of walks). It’s a lesson to all to not post and run! Or at least check more than once a day. And yes I’ve been on more than a few walks over the years.

It's amazing where tortoises can get to, if they keep plodding up those mountains! :D
And yep, the Tassie game tends to move a fair bit faster than Where-is-it (Aussie).

It certainly was, not that we needed it in the perfect conditions we had for the whole week.

So almost 3 weeks ago, where did we get this brief glimpse of our surrounds before being buried in mist and rain and seeing nothing for the rest of our time up there?

Thank you.

Where was I grateful for a gleam of sunlight after the storm?

Massif bowl is not that big. But there are a couple of Abels not too far away.

It doesn't remind me of anything specifically. How about the traverse from PW to Achilles?

Not that range either, and not that NP. Although it's just across the road.
I'm near water. The water shares a name with a well-known lump of rock.

Looks like KW Range - possibly southern half, near Lake Anne?

That's the spot. Now I'm free to go walkies.

ETA: To make sure it's clear (unlike the previous day) it was Lake Anne and IDP is up next.

Thank you
To keep things moving along, this one should be very straightforward.....

Where was I standing as I looked upon this characteristically shaped body of water?

We don't seem to have gone far, that looks like Wessex Tarn from Mt Harold?

I hope everyone is off walking, the weather is great.

Not Picton in shot, long way from there.

The mountains at rear were named a long time ago.
