I'm guessing Mt Field NP is correct, Maybe you're on the Eastern side of Lake Fenton?

Mt Field NP is correct but not Lake Fenton. I'm west of there.

Not that far west, and much smaller.

Are you standing near Lake Dobson? If you are I’m not sure what you’re looking at.

No, but that is the closest guess so far Graham. I walked here from Lake Dobson.
Doesn't matter about the unnamed feature I'm looking at, just need my location.

Possibly only two places that fit your clues. Try Platypus Tarn.

Platypus Tarn it is Graham. Probably a bit tricky without the tarn in view. Over to you.

Slight glitch - file was too big so I had to resize it.
This is one of the views I had last weekend. Where was I?

Roughly the same latitude, but east from there.
It was an important water source before some campsite upgrades

It's still an important water source for some of us, although I never used the official campsite. Better spots up on Fortescue.

Straight off the bat, the first guess gets it. Yes it's Moriah, a wonderful day, with a far better descent than the first time. Still plenty of fagus around Ball, too.

I toyed with Hyperion, but didn't remember that much vegetation. Shoulda looked at my misty photos.
