Let's go to WA. We stopped here for a short bushwalk on a ~2 hour round trip through the forest, mostly parallel to a long distance walking track.
I'll accept the name of this location, name of the railway or name of the town we started from.

Etmilyn, Bibbulum Track, but that is cheating as you sure gave it away!

Well no one else managed to guess it after nearly two days Sandy, so all good
. Yes, Etmilyn siding on the Hotham Valley Railway forest train.Started from Dwellingup, a major resupply town and rest stop on the Bibbulmun Track, on which I sneaked in a few kms short walk while there.

Without resorting to scanned slides, I don't have any handy WA photos so lets go to the ACT and this view/location from a bushwalk last week. Should be easy.

You can simplify this by omitting steps 4 and 5, since the photo is placed at the end of the post by default.

Thanks Kletterer. We need the state/territory nominated but I'll have a go anyway and assume it's ACT.
Maybe Mt Gudgenby? Although there is a post above the cairn in the photos I found online.
