Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)

[johnw]

Is that Mt Tamboritha?

That's a fair distance away. There is some zoom but I don't think I could see it from here.

Are you on the sentinels?

No, I'm quite a distance from there.

[johnw]

Repeating image for new page.

This is a "where am I?" VIC:

Buffalo Valley and beyond from Macs Point, Mt Buffalo NP via Bright VIC

I'm north of the previous guesses.

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Reminds me of the view across the upper Howqua valley towards Stirling, but no idea where from? Maybe around Helicopter Spur/Picnic Point area?

A fair way north of there.

[johnw]

I'm in a smaller NP. Hiked through some early snow to this lookout point.

[Walk_fat boy_walk]

Maybe somewhere on buffalo but no idea where

You're on the right massif. No lettuce, pickles or special sauce here...

[crollsurf]

I thought maybe somewhere around Mount Buffalo with all ther further North references
Macs Point Lookout?

Cowombat Flat?

Cowombat Flat?

Yeah, 10 metres north, and I'd be in NSW

I wondered how close to the border.

NSW:

Trinity Falls, off Williams Track from Govetts Leap (below the Jungle Track), Blue Mountains NP via Blackheath NSW

The track containing these falls has been closed for some time.
But no doubt the holy three can visit whenever they wish.

Trinity Falls below Jungle Track.

[johnw]

Trinity Falls below Jungle Track.

Correct.

[keithj]

Name this NSW bit of rock. A couple of clues in there.

[keithj]

Some of you will have done this scramble - there's a log book at a spot named after a v. well known bushwalker 500m to the right, and another log book less than 1km ahead.

I haven't but is it one of the Narrow Neck passes? Maybe Carlon Head?

[keithj]

is it one of the Narrow Neck passes?

Yes.

Maybe Carlon Head?

No, but close.

There's a short length of white rope at the top.

Yes. No, but close.

I found a photo of someone traversing a slot using a white (I assume fixed) rope on Glenraphael Head.
Looks vaguely similar to the one in your image, but a much closer shot.

Well done - it is GlenRaphael head. Dunphys Pass (& logbook) is 500m to the right & at the top of this rock is Harmils Ledge which leads to another logbook.
The lower part of Carlons Head is on the horizon at the left - that's where we went next.

[johnw]

Thanks Keith. I researched quite few of those passes, most are exposed beyond my comfort zone.
I should at least explore the top of some.

This is a "where am I"? NSW:

Cedar Creek Valley from Castle Head, Blue Mountains NP via Katoomba NSW

Narrow Neck?

[johnw]

Narrow Neck?

That's a big landform. Need a specific location.

[Tyreless]

Castle Head?

[johnw]

Castle Head?

Correct Tyreless, looking down the valley of Cedar Creek.
You just need to guess the Tassie photo now for a hat trick .

[Tyreless]

Thanks John. Next is in NSW…
