No-one else has jumped in, so I might as well break the game for a while. Where was this?

That didn't last long, did it? Yep, Green Bluff/ Urquharts Mesa/Grassy Knoll, take your pick.

With Mrs Perrins Bluff and (sigh) PW lined up like that it didn't make it particularly hard. Next

Correct eggs. We were having a look around the old mine workings and stamper site. Some of the old mine workings are behind me. My second visit. Unfortunately the off road FWD, quads and m bikes have discovered it and it was very churned up.

I found a gold stamper in a gully a very short distance inland from the coast down from there.

Where is this young fellow [can you see him?]

I had this one ready to go, but there's a good chance I'll be going walkies for a few days, so if no-one has it by close of business today and/or I don't respond this evening, someone else can jump in with another shot.

It doesn’t seem high enough for the lookout so perhaps above Tessellated Pavement?

Correct Graham. Yes I was relatively close to the pavement from memory.

Thanks John. That’s a very familiar area for me.
Last week I had three perfect days for walking. Where did I take this photo?

Looks like Massif in the back, so that would put you in the upper Pinestone Valley.

Perhaps this tarn:
