You're near Achgarve on the slopes of Meall nam Meallan looking towards Letterewe with Beinn Airigh Charr the rough knobly looking hill and the Torridon hills in the far distance, Liathach on the far right.

:clap: 9.5 out of 10 - I was on the summit of Meall nan Meallan :wink:
(It's a superb viewpoint - deserves to be better known. Best ascended from the end of the beach at Mellon Udrigle).
Over to you!

Took a little working out from relative hill positioning, but I enjoy that sort of thing.

OK, where is this one?

Bit of a wild guess - Loch Clair ?

I think that's Cul Mor hiding in the cloud, so are you on Loch Sionascaig?

Not Loch Clair, but again can see why you might think that.

Yep, I've attempted to fool people by hiding Cul Mor, and hoping folk thought the sun was setting not rising. Taken from Eilean Mor on Sionasgaig so precisely right :clap: . Truly wonderful place to camp. Especially if you're a tick!

Over to you...

Thanks! The little top of An Laogh on the right gave it away for me.

Which hill is this?
