Then I will go back to my original thought - Dorado Peak looking towards High Moor/Columba?

That's what I thought. Not right out on Dorado but on/near the track where you start heading across to the Peak.

He he. Getting closer. But there's a major landmark wrapped in that cloud.

Using the clues, are you on Stuarts Saddle?

Yes - this is from Stuart Saddle - the moor in view is Goon Moor, and the cloud is almost encasing Federation Peak - but its top is just poking through.

I've been busy today and forgot I had that guess. Sorry.
To make up for it I'll put up this picture with a myriad of recognisable peaks. Where was I?

Either Falling Mountain or the Acropolis, going on the angles to the major peaks. I think . . . although it could be from a number of points on the DuCane traverse.

eidt: No, if it's not Falling Mountain I think it would have to be from the Cathedral Plateau. Too much of a gap between Byron, Cuvier and Manfred for the DuCanes.

None of those places. This is only about 1 1/2 hours walk from Narcissus.

I don't think you would see all of these mountains and the lake from Windy Ridge. This is an elevated location quite close to the last mountain on the right of the picture.

No, I didn't think you would either. And you certainly wouldn't have that sort of foreground.

Ahhhh, now I recall - you went into the DuCanes over Gould, didn't you? Which puts you very near my campsite on the Gould Plateau.

That's it. We had just staggered onto the plateau on those really hot days in February. The tarns on Guardians and The Labyrinth were welcome for a swim.

Wish I'd had weather like that. I was going the other way and it was foggy and raining all the way down. Usually is when I walk the lakeside.

That be the place, Graham. A lovely sunny day on the Anne circuit - once the morning fog had burnt off.

That's a beautiful part of the Anne Range.

What is this lake?

Given the conditions I had up there I wouldn't recognise a clear shot from Maxwells or La Perouse if it walked up and punched me in the face.
