Coastal Perfection
This view is one I have dreamed about for years after seeing it in an article I found on-line. The picture is taken off the rarely visited Mt Norgate (419m) overlooking Oberon Bay, then Norman, Pillar, Leonard and Tongue Points before getting to Shellback Island at Wilsons Promontory. When down amongst these points the fact that they line up is impossible to percieve how they do line up when up here is a true wonder to behold.
The difficulty in getting to this spot was staggeringly hard involving two days of hard bushbashing and dangerous sea level traverses to cover less than 10km. Part of the journey can be seen on this You Tube clip . Incidentally this clip was of one of the easier traverses on which no-one actually got (very)wet (was so preoccupied with me and my companions doing the other ones safely I forgot to get my camera out, doh).
For more of the story of this trip check out the caption linked with my Anser Island from South-west Point pic below.

spectacular vista Trav ! the reocurring headlands and bays really leads the eye through the scene ! This image alone in years to come make it well worth the experience.
Travis Easton replied
In a twisted masocistic sort of way I revelled in the experience as it happened, the pics were a bonus. Certainly happy to have got a nice one though, I still have a fairly lengthy list of places and shots I want to take before doing the Prom book thing so good to have another one ticked off, just bummed that we ran out of time to get down into sea eagle bay which looks totally spectacular with the cascades dropping into them. Maybe next third term hols I’ll try a variation on this trip, camping here and on Norgate.
Anne-Marie Lad...
