Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete darkness. Safe return doubtful.

I am in the Arthurs.
I am not on the side of Hesperus.
I couldn't even see the side of Hesperus from where I was standing.

I'm thinking you're looking at Mt Picked On so you'd be somewhere in the Eastern Arthurs. Boiler Plates?

That is Mounty Picked-On, but I'm not on the Boiler plates. (Nor in the EA's)
Fixed typo.

Whoopies, typo, I'm not in the Eastern Arthurs.
I not at sirona, but there is a planetary lake just over the ridge on the right, about 300m from me.

I'm In in the Arthur Ranges
I'm not on the EAs, High Moor, Becherviase Plateau, Boiler Plates
I'm not near Sirona.

Nice!
I'm at the saddle just north of the Phoenix.
That little plateau just east of it would make a great little campsite, though wouldn't be the most protected from the weather.

Are you on the Southern Range, sidling the Hills and looking over Moores Bridge to one of the Reservoir Lakes?

The only other narrow, clear ridge like that I can think of is Wylly Plateau connection to Victoria Cross, but there's no lake beyond that.
