Not Clarence (still a fair distance off but probably the closest so far) You can drive to this spot (just) and the peaks in question are fairly well known to most walkers.

Uh-oh it's been 24hrs. I better offer up another voluntary clue....

One of those peaks shares it's name with a famous Tasmanian bushman

Not sure where white spur lake is, and you can't see any peaks from Fergus.

White Spur is a new dam on the West Coast - unlikely since the peaks don't reach 1200m in the vicinity.

I have not been in the area, but is Clarks Timber one of your lumps?

Hmm no it's not west coast you're right there. Kind of only leaves one area huh....

Hmmm I'm not familiar with that one either eggs? I'll say no as these 2 lumps are both well known peaks to most bushwalkers.

Further away again. Fergus still closest.

So it's not west, cradle-LSC or SW
The peaks aren't abels though well over 1300m
There are 4 or 5 abels within 3 - 4k's of me.
One of the peaks is named after a famous Tasmanian bushman, the other named after a fall
And you can drive here (just)

Fresh clue ... hmmm the lake is natural but named after a destroyer of the Tasmanian wilderness.

The lake is named after a destroyer of the Tas wilderness and you can drive to it. Not Gunns Lake?

I think I bought it for our honeymoon [83]. Had to replace the aluminium poles with steel after a strong wind bent them.
At 5kg too heavy to carry now, but still about to use it car camping.
Just had to tape up some holes.

We were not great adventurers back in 86. So this is next to a fairly well used track.

I think you have posted that before - or it might be I remember camping close by at a similar time.
Where was I last week?

Not too far from Cathedral but I’m not sure I could see it when I climbed the mountain on the left on this morning.
