Some photos of my trip to Arthur's Seat, Mornington, Victoria

Arthurs Seat in Victoria, Australia, was named in 1802 by Acting Lieutenant John Murray of the Lady Nelson.
He named it after the famous hill of the same name in Edinburgh, Scotland, because the Victorian peak bore a striking resemblance to the Scottish landmark.
Very hazy so photos not as sharp.

Arthur's Seat is 314 metres above sea level and is the result of a tectonic uplift.
Comprised predominately of igneous granite.

Small point of order.. Its "Tootgarook".. And "Cape Schank" Some of those Indigenous names are horrendous to spell..
Good work researching the geology..😷
