Yep. Pretty sure it's taken near that boulder field shortly before Steanes Tarn.

That looks like the Weld ridge back left - and it's always awkward working out angles on that - but for now, I'm thinking perhaps one of the Wellington Range Abels, and I'll start with Trestle.

You started correctly, it's Trestle

If Ann is the one south of the cliffs, yes.

One of these years I must get around to learning the basics of Tasmanian geology. :roll:

It was nice to do a run for the first time down the Tarkine coast earlier this year.

The peak in view is a named peak.

Granite: east, especially north east. Quartzite & schist: south west. Conglomerate: west. Sandstone: scattered, lower layers. Dolerite: everywhere in between and often over.

Not sure why someone was thinking of a poet at the time of naming this?

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Tue 18 Oct, 2022 1:45 pm

Well;, it's not Byron, Manfred, Pindars or Shakespeare ... could be Ossian's Throne though it doesn't look steep enough.

Re: GAME: Where am I?

Tue 18 Oct, 2022 2:05 pm

It is indeed Ossians Throne - as viewed from the south
The focus on the foreground probably softens the perception of fall off the peak.

I was following the escarpment as close as was practical when I went over that, which does change the perception of it. As did the actual climb; slopes are always steeper when you're going up them.

Nice clue. I vaguely remember the days when I didn't have to use special techniques for walking. :roll: Next:

The clouds cooperatively lifted for us when we got to KW2. This pic has a fair bit more zoom on it, and it's in a different direction.
