WAG - reminds me of Triangle Lake or one of nearby the unnamed tarns in Chinamans Plains?

RexyViney is getting closer with Christy's. This is a little further afield.
It has a name, MountainRocket, although I'm not sure of the provenance of said name. Probably a drunk fishingperson. But while it is in the outer Walls, it's not in Chinaman's.

Not Daisy.
It's close to a very large lake.

Close to a bigger lake. Not in the main part of the Walls.
I still suspect that the name is more alcohol related than geological.

It’s a long time since I’ve been there - over 50 years in fact.
