So close! Still a few kilometres away though. There is a named point just behind where Bixy-boy snapped this. That name will suffice, as on the LIST this beach is not named (it does have a name on other tasmaps though...)

Thanks Zane, somewhat of a Bradbury leveraging everyone's previous good work, but the last clue helped.
I've poked around Bay of Fires a bit but yet to get that far north.

Yes eggs. Memory is hazy but somewhere around the summit, we were just below the trig a few minutes earlier.
