Highest peak at the back.
I think its the only named object in sight

Repeated here

: Mt Warren-Hastings as seen from an unnamed peak above the Arkaroola bushcamping area.

There is a hut not far to the east of this peak.
The peak & hut are in a national park - but I was not when taking this photo.

Jeezzz, I dunno? But I’ll have a dig to get a reference point rolling...Mt Buffalo?

by **eggs** » Fri 24 Dec, 2021 6:56 am

Sorry. I repeated the photo, but this is in SA.
Previous suggestion was Mt Hayward in the Flinders Ranges, but I was north from there.

I don't know why I'm doing this eggs when I'm supposed to start mowing lawns, tidying gardens and so on :roll:

.
Won't narrow it much further but Is it one of the "Jessops" (SA version of the Abels)?

by **eggs** » Fri 24 Dec, 2021 9:23 am

Afraid not John.
This one tops out just over 590m ASL.

Eggs you wrote, "highest peak at the back". The photographic evidence makes it difficult to judge which one that is. The one at the left of the ridge, and the one to its right, seem to be about the same altitude.

(Another way of putting this is to say I'm struggling for an answer.)

High point is the one on the left.
Both you and NNW will kick yourselves...

This makes me suspect that you're looking at something on the other end of the Heysen Range; it could be Falkland from up near Angorichilna, although I don't recall it, or any of the other peaks, being featured before..

by **eggs** » Fri 24 Dec, 2021 4:50 pm

Long way north from Falkland - on the east-ern edge of the ranges

I've finished most of my chores now, time for a well deserved break. Mount Warren-Hastings?

by **north-north-west** » Fri 24 Dec, 2021 5:38 pm

Warren Hastings isn't that high; around 560m, I think.

by **eggs** » Fri 24 Dec, 2021 6:09 pm

My map has contours to 590 - but other sources suggest 560ish.
A bit ill defined - but Warren-Hastings is correct.

PS - the Oppaminda Nudlamutana walking notes and map show it as 590m.

by **johnw** » Fri 24 Dec, 2021 10:49 pm

Yes I also managed to find a reference to 590m for Mt Warren-Hastings
Seasons greetings fellow players. Keep it easy then, assuming many will be enjoying festivities. NSW:

Looking down at the Strzelecki creek?

No, I'm a number of kms from there but you're in the right area.

by **crollsurf** » Sat 25 Dec, 2021 12:09 pm

Looks like Wilkinsons Creek

Just back from Christmas lunch. Correct, from the pad near Townsend etc.

I'm actually in a creek just north of Strzelecki, but less than 1km away so go ahead and continue the game!

Thanks, you might know where this is then icefest. NSW

I'm heading to Jindabyne for 10 days after New Year so this is all very inspiring.
Guessing the headwaters of Strzlecki Creek?

Enjoy the walk and yes, that's right. Little creek near Tenison Woods Knoll. Maybe just above icefest's last photo.

Thanks. Just staying at the pub with mrs, who doesn't walk (and just had a hip replacement).
Planning to get up on the range solo every couple of days, dodgy knee strapped up.
It looked familiar, staying with the theme, NSW:

I'm surprised to see that Gore-Tex had been invented by 1862.
