Is it a Port of Entry? |
New Zealand ..... South Island ? . LFH

LFH,
No, but correct hemisphere. |
A clue. This airstrip and the nearby tourist resort are both named after the hills in the background.
Edited to avoid sending people in the wrong direction. The name does not include any of the following words: hill, mountain, range, ridge, escarpment. |
Terrain looks like somewhere in the Kimberleys - Bungle Bungles perhaps?
Right or wrong, I must say how nice it is to return to the slow process of clues and reasoning rather than Google photo matching! Edit: No response from India Four Two yet and I'm offline for a while from now so if by any chance I'm correct, please throw open. |
I'm guessing one of the South African resorts. Something like Giant's Castle?
|
I also go with the South African scene, the upturned crust looks like Western Cape (Hex River Valley) but the trees and meadow suggests Eastern Cape.
|
We're making progress here. :)
cgb and SI, Having looked at some pictures of Hex River Valley I can see why you might think that. Wearing my geologist's hat, I think I would have started looking in South Africa too. However, this aerodrome is not in that part of Gondwanaland. Max Tow is closer ;) Here's the front lawn of the resort: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...28at210348.png but this is not the Kimberleys or Bungle Bungles. |
My first attempt. MalaMala?
|
To see that part of South Australia looking so green had me totally foxed, but I recognize the kangaroo on the left!
Wilpena Homestead perhaps? If so, OH. |
but I recognize the kangaroo on the left! Yes, I thought it was Skippy, too, but I don't see any butcher birds in the trees. ;) The airstrip and resort at Wilpena Pound, SA. The airstrip picture must have been taken after a big wet. I went there once and it was a typical dry, dusty outback scene. I knew as soon as I posted that picture of the resort, you or one of your Ozzie mates would get it. Wilpena Pound is a spectacular eroded syncline in the Flinders Ranges. The airstrip is in the flat, yellowish area in the centre right. The white area at the top left is the salt flats of Lake Torrens. http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c3...lpenapound.jpg Dora-9 has declared Open House. |
