Mt Olivier, near Mt Cook, NZ. So I've been informed. (NZ photos are permitted in the whole-of-aus competitions).

Always an interesting one, the "Why I Walk" competitions. You tend to get a mix of shots - some with people (or objects like tents) in them, some which are just magnificent landscapes, and the occasional quirky one. Makes it a bit of a challenge which way to go, as it probably depends on what you think the brief actually is.
