GAME: Where am I?

[eggs]

Maybe Sprent from Twelvetrees Range?

Maybe Sprent from Twelvetrees Range?

Yes correct eggs, an interesting walk that doesn't seem to get a lot of visitation.

Back of Cradle from the Twisted Lakes

[Tortoise]

Looking at the eastern end of Little Horn, but not sure where from. Maybe somewhere near Artillery Knob?

[eggs]

Close. The spot is named for a series of tarns...

[Tortoise]

Twisted Ones, perchance?

[eggs]

Yes - we were right next to them for this photo

[Tortoise]

Thanks, Eggs. That was my next guess. Next one:

[north-north-west]

Looks like Eldon Bluff and Crag from roughly northish. Inglis, maybe.

[Tortoise]

Looks like Eldon Bluff and Crag from roughly northish. .

Yes and yes, and very roughly north-ish-ish, as opposed to south-ish-ish. Not Inglis.

[johnw]

Nereus?

[north-north-west]

Disaster pimple is almost hidden by the Crag, which makes me think maybe more NW. Murchison?

[Tortoise]

Nereus?

Not yet...

[Tortoise]

Disaster pimple is almost hidden by the Crag, which makes me think maybe more NW. Murchison?

Bingo. What's disaster pimple?

[north-north-west]

What's disaster pimple?

The little lump on the ridge leading out to Eldon Bluff, which is where I stuffed the knee. And thanks.

Ah. That explains why I don't remember it and you do.

[Tortoise]

But c'mon! I give you plenty to work with, and look what you give me back!

[north-north-west]

I'm looking at an Abel, or at least part of one. From somewhere that is very much not mountainous.

[Tortoise]

You're probably on a plain. Maybe this winter I can learn some Tasmanian geology. I only remember bits and pieces.

[Tortoise]

Probably not west coast. Or east coast.

[north-north-west]

Definitely not at all coastal. But not a plain either. I think this is a view you would get doing the book route to the Abel in question. I think ... because it's not the way I did it.

[Last]

It's dolerite, so that eliminates a few. Are you looking at Parson and Clark?

[pazzar]

Mt Tor?

[north-north-west]

Neither, and both of those are a long way off.

[north-north-west]

The Abel is named after a walker.

[Last]

Phantom mountain?

[north-north-west]

You're not taking this seriously, Last.

[Tortoise]

Phantom mountain?

230 views. Hmm. I've started googling Abels. Apparently Hyperion = 'he who walks on high'. I'll try that.

[north-north-west]

For once, I wasn't being cryptic. It is, literally, named after a bushwalker, skier and decent bloke (except for the little matter of his employment). But that's just the peak in view. The place I am ... not sure where the name comes from. It certainly isn't a good old Anglo name. Although the thing of which it is part - that's Anglo alright.
