seen from the armadale/Mallaig Ferry?



Yes, its Meall Buidhe, but actually from a canoe off the coast, near Sgurr an Eilein Ghiubhais, whilst paddling out from Rubha Raonuill to Mallaig. Thought the different angle might be less well known ;)

Anyway, well done, over to you...

A clue seems to be in order.....
This is taken a bit further down the glen, turning around and looking back.

Spot on:) Even if there wasn't much rain, we were still wading in bog up to our knees in places.

OK. Where was this taken from, and what mountains am I looking towards?

This has for me a northern feeling about. so, just a guess without knowing anything: You are looking at Clachtoll or maybe Stoer?
