The discovery of a white Holden Astra perched precariously at the peak of Mount Louisa this week has left locals confused, with social media abuzz with theories on how the intrepid driver navigated the rocky terrain to reach such lofty heights.

“I’m not even mad, I’m impressed,” one commenter said.
