Jean Brook Forest Reserve is the closest so far. About 5 km away. We have just been for a short walk on a long trail

Thanks eggs, definitely had that Cradle locale appearance. Looks like you had a nice day for it.

Where am I doing some housekeeping?

Yes the conditions make it harder to make out Lake Bill behind me.
Appropriately on the edge of Blizzard Plain. Over to you Zane.

Correct! You should pop it on the to do list, a nice little walk with a lovely view :) Also, not too sure where my first reply has gone to? Makes it look like Eggs is talking to themselves :lol:

I can see Terminal, and Lloyd Jones, and Secheron, and Frankland Peak ... at least I think I can. That's some impressive telephoto capability. Are you somewhere near Strathgordon?

I suspect eggs is at Serpentine Lookout, yes using a lot of zoom. I have a wide view shot from there that this fits into perfectly.

I was at Serpentine. It is a zoom, and I think NNW can have it for a good imagination. Definitely Lloyd-Jones perhaps Terminal?, but Secheron and Frankland are out of view to the RHS.

I got Lloyd Jones, which is the one that counts. That's probably what called Terminal Dome on the far left, which is on the spur running down NEish from the summit, but close enough. Maybe it's time I went back and covered the gap between Secheron and Lloyd Jones, although there's some very awkward rock in between.

I was playing "name the peak" out here. Far too many to get them all right, so one small section from where?

Bit of zoom, cropped to remove foreground.
I keep saying this but: right general area, wrong lump. Views here are even better.
