Yes I know. Partly my fault for asking the question
that way. I guess what I was looking for was two
separate things. 1. If anyone could confirm/deny the
tp (preferably if they had been there, but also if
they could tell even if they hadn't); 2. To spur on
anyone who had been there to be able to describe the
point or post a photo.
But there appears to be agreement the photo I saw
wasn't at the tp or at least within a few hundred
meters.
