Post by GOD » Sat Jul 03, 2010 10:12 pm

Highest in ground level elevation ASL that is. Today she conquered Mt Nameless (1120m):

That's my office in the background.

And for those of you complaining about the recent cold in Perth, daytime temps here are still in the high 20s. Overnight min hasn't been below 12 since I've been here :)

Meharry and Bruce are on my list of places to explore, but all the tourist guidebooks say Nameless is the highest point accessible by 4wd, so I reckon I can safely claim the title of the highest Sube.

And a couple more pics:

There's two actual bullet holes there, and one 3" bazooka hole. And they just happen to line up with the snorkel I have waiting to go on ;).
