Well yes, and just a couple of miles further SW from there is Australia's highest peak, but I thought you were talking about just 5 miles West of you, though perhaps you were referring to 5 hours?!?!

In any case, it truly seems you live in one of the most interesting areas Down Under!!!

5 Miles West of me and looking down on us is Pointer Lookout 1564 metres (5,131 ft) above sea level.
Mount Kosciusko (which I've walked to the very peak of) is 2,228 metres (7,310 ft) above sea level which is still only a freckle compared to other countries highest points.
Thankfully no snow for us....which equates to no crowds.

Pointer Lookout (which is thick with deer) -
