Looks like somewhere on February Plains, but I'm not sure where.

Somewhere on the February plains is more than close enough. I dont need a grid ref tortoise. Take a turn.

:lol: I thought i should at least have a shot at working out the bodies of water, but I only got as far as 'not the Tarn of Islands'. I've been meaning to get up there for years. Looks nice. Next:

Seems like it might be lower than Roland - maybe VanDyke?

Hmm. Things are not always what they seem. But since Letstryagain was so generous to me, I'll give you Roland. :)

My wife has a photo of me sitting on your foreground rock - so I don't have much of an excuse...

Thanks eggs, The Nut in the photo was the giveaway. We couldn't see it from the other end of the park around Anniversary Bay etc.

This spot doesn't have an official name, so what are the two lakes in view?

Not Little Horn.

I'm off to the bush tomorrow so I'll provide another picture with more light, and a clue.

The clue is: crunchy

Nice work Tortoise and NNW. PB is correct.

Since I'd used the crunchy clue with Tortoise in real life I think she's happy to let you have it NNW.
Over to you.

Thank you, Hills, and I trust you have a good walk, wherever you go; I'm happy to claim it as the clue means nothing to me but your second image was familiar.

It might have meant more if we'd got to the second clue, which would have been 'smooth'.
