I saw this photo and though "I've been there, I sat by that trig point" :lol: :lol:
I think I recognize Sgurr na Ciche on the horizon... Is it Geal Charn (the Loch Arkaig one), looking west?

Thanks :D We never saw a thing from the top of Geal Charnm, so I was going purely by the shape of the cairn :lol:
Next one - which summit is this?

Clue for the weekend: this Munro is usually climbed with two neighbouring M's - one of the neighbours is in the centre of the picture.

I'll make it easier by adding, it's east of the Great Glen, but west of A9 :D

Spot on :D :D I think Pitridh should be called "Creag Sidekick" as it's merely an outlying top of Geal Charn :wink:

Thanks, BP!

What hill is poking its head out of this magnificent inversion?
