Well, apparently the unenthused brain is still able to get to the correct answer. :) All yours, nnw.

Is that Louisa Bay?

To be pedantic, it's a photograph of Louisa Bay.

Coming off Achilles, heading for Perrins?

Actually coming from Perrins, heading up Achilles but close enough

Ok, so you can't actually see the highway going through the middle of the photo, but it's there.

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Fri 08 Sep, 2023 5:17 pm

Yeah, I though that was Lake Burbury doown there, just trying to sort out the tricky bit ... like where that puts you.

Tick for Lake Burbury. I thought you'd get it as soon as you figured that bit. Mind you, you may never have seen the view - though I thought you would have on at least one memorable trip.

Re: GAME: Where am I?

From that, I assume this is from Eldon Peak camp.

A good assumption. I had trouble working out what things in the photo were exactly on the map, even knowing where I was! But if you can work out that it's the southern end of the northern half of the lake that's nearest to the camera, I think you've only got one very high place to chose from.

Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong, Eggs, but I think we're looking at Thureau Hills, Jukes Range, Darwin, and Sorell at the back. Mt Owen out of the photo to the right.

All very logical. Which is fine when the little grey cells are in logic mode.

(edit: oops, wrong shot)

Sweet-talking me will get you nowhere. I'm impervious to flattery.

A little zoom, a little cropping, a disinclinatioon for pedantry right now (it's Eldon Peak; there is no Mt Eldon) and you're up next.

Is sneaky or human flattery?

This one is a fun one.

It might.

I'd prefer to know where I am though.
