Going up Beecroft? Or Cripps? It's somewhere in that area but I'd have to do some digging to determine exactly whichh lump you're on.

At least until it was burnt out. I must admit I'm not sure if burning this range was significant to natural rehabilitation or preventative to disaster but it was a head scratcher.

I think you are on the jubilee range

If I've identified the peaks at the back correctly (which is an Everest sized IF) I think you are probably somewhere on the Traveller, maybe even on Ida.
