Interesting. The List ""scanned"" map don't show that track off the end of Syd's - but the Topo does.

Woohoo! I hope to get back there soon :)

Okay, next! Very distinctive peak in view, but where was the photo taken from?

And the prize goes to Lophophaps. It is indeed the Pine River in Bernes Valley, with the Walls in the distance.

I believe so, eggs. Wasn't quite sure, which is why i didn't say! But a quick look at the next photo I took looks like it must be Sally - in which case you're correct.

As it's been > 24 hrs, and there's no sign of Lophophaps, anybody can post.

40 Lakes Peak is the mound in the distance.
The water on the LHS is the start of a large lake.

Flyfisher - sorry I'm not familiar with Christies creek, don't think I'm near that.

I think eggs has an idea where - I'm on a track east of Blue Peaks track.

Noone else? It helps to have been to some places - and we walked through here when we camped next to Lake Explorer - which is just up ahead.
The pad through here is the route from Lake MacKenzie past Lake Explorer to Ironstone Hut.
