You are on Hyperion, looking at Massif, Falling Mountain and the Ducane range high point with the incredibly lovely Lake Helios below.

It's hard to be further from Mt Field and still be in a National Park.

And once again, I have one that should have been dragged out for a day or two, and you spoil it all.
Yep, Circinus. Lovely area out there.

I'm better at remembering names of lumpy bits. Not what they look like, mostly, just the names.

Where would you find this entry in my Bridge Too Far folder?

Hard to resist a challenge like that! Is it just above Lake Echo?

Yes it is East Tower. It seems that Bluewombat got in first and also seemed more sure of their answer.
