I suspect it might be somewhere on the Prince of Wales Range - near Mt Humboldt?

Sorry mate. Never heard of that one.
This peak isn’t an Abel but is pretty high…more or less.

This mountain is also frequently mispronounced and misspelled…if only by one letter.

I don't think she'd recognise it if it's not a white-out in the cloud. But she is the wordsmith.

It's not as cryptic as some clues I've seen NNW work out :-)

It's a popular sunset spot in the Western Arthurs.

Which isn't a mountain, so I'll go with Mt Columba (as opposed to Columbia).

Some loose wording there - but I think you are referring to the Barn Bluff track - which is correct.
