Sorry, I replied to this earlier but it seems to have disappeared.

Perspective wise you could, but we need to go further west.

You're very close Roger, just not the right road.

Arkaroola Rd from the junction of the Gammon Ranges Rd and Mt Hopeless Rds

Spot on.

If you look on Google Earth it was taken from the left hand kink in the road just after the contractors camp, visible as a large cleared area on the right hand side of the road.

I'm warming up Google Earth for the next challenge Bee Utey.

OK not trying to make this an easy one.



Hints: it's parked next to a SA public road. It's visible on Google Street View. The road it's parked on is a little used dirt road named after a famous Australian explorer.

I'm afraid I can't place it from you description. Any chance of a lat/long fix on where you took the pic from Jon?

Google Earth says

30.32.03
139.18.01 - ish

Try this: -30.509342 139.299820

That should work in Google Earth.
