Explains why the hut and helipad aren't in sight.
I'm on my phone, so this screenshot will have to do. Where is this?

Clue time - this place has an official name, and a track to it that is shown on LISTmap. I'm also looking south in the picture.

I watched a couple of your videos earlier Lucas trying to guess this, but this wasn't in them :(.
I'm sure I've visited the general area and the view looks familiar, but I've said that before :roll:.
I haven't quite walked to it but I think you could be at the Devils Throne.

This is indeed the Devil's Throne. Seemed like a working bee had been through there recently, it was pretty well pruned.

Good to know for next time. That track was pretty overgrown when I was there, so I went up to Thark Ridge.

It was like a giant wet sponge, the whole state was awash at the time. We got caught in a downpour just before the photo.

Looks like from the short walk to Pine Lake. I have similar photos in some very foul, freezing weather. The wind/chill was unbelievable.

Pine Lake indeed, when it was very full. Note grass under water.

Not the Tyndalls, about 90km from there as the crow flies.
Mainly conglomerate I believe, more evident at higher elevations I'm descending from.
