GAME: Where am I?

[north-north-west]

Good place for yoga.

[Last]

If you overdo it it could be Lake Thor but I think you may be referring to Stretcher lake?

[Tortoise]

Well done, Last. The best I could come up with was Downward Dog Lake , or Serenity Sound - and nope, that's not the Franklin River.

Phew. I thought this was going to hang round for the whole week.
Yes, a short little toddle from the track if you do it the easy way, although I may have done a bit of wandering around before and after. Good little tent site as well, except for the firepit.

Firepit? Has Rob Parsons been there? Next

Is it Liffey Bluff looking over to Projection Bluff?

[Last]

No, but close

[teak]

Whitehorse Hill?

[Last]

No, but close. Whitehorse Hill is just out of shot.

[teak]

Is it the high point of Drys Bluff?

[Last]

Is it the high point of Drys Bluff?

All yours teak, I think it's actually from a little south of there but that's the answer I wanted.

[teak]

Thank you where was I in this photo?

West Wall?

[teak]

Very close.

[Son of a Beach]

Temple?

[teak]

Temple is correct.

[Son of a Beach]

Thanks Teak. I'm not very good at this game, but that view is one I've seen many times.

Explorer Creek crossing point in flood

Hint time... This is usually a simple creek crossing point. On this occasion, we decided it was too dangerous, and turned back.

(The banks of the creek on both sides are actually further back than they look, with the vegetation growing out over the creek beyond the banks. It would have required a running-jump from knee-deep water over the ground above the bank on the left onto a slippery rock, and then a jump onto the knee-deep bank on the right, but not actually knowing where the creek ended and bank/land started.)

[Graham51]

Is it the outlet creek from Lake Fanny?

[Tortoise]

I wondered about Lake Explorer.

[Son of a Beach]

I wondered about Lake Explorer.

That's correct. This is the usual spot to cross Explorer Creek, a little below Lake Explorer.

[Tortoise]

Thanks SoaB. I actually meant to say Explorer Creek. Next one:

Yep

Is that the "normal" way up Mt Roland?

[north-north-west]

Is that the "normal" way up Mt Roland?

There are two "normal" ways - O'Neills and the Face Track.

I regard O'Neills as the "normal" way but I've only been the Kings road way. Is that the Face Track?

[eggs]

This is on O'Neils just near Reggies Falls - so Last has it [before he said more..]

[Last]

O'neils, the "normal" way was my guess. I was only trying to clarify if what NNW calls the Face Track is the Kings Road route. Next

just below the top of Maxwell Ridge. On the Ooze Lake side
