One of the few I was certain of without looking it up, even though I haven't been there!

Next up, there should be plenty of distinctive features that help locate this one.

A wild guess at Ben Vorlich (Loch Earn)?

(I didn't have this view, or indeed any view, when I climbed it - but it looks like Dumyat in the distance)

It is in fact a long way from Ben Vorlich or Dumyat......

I was thinking it was Klibreck and I think you are on Ben More Assynt.

I'm going to guess An Teallach (Bidean a' Ghlas Thuill) based on the stony foreground, and I remember coming down that to Dundonnell, and the first part was very stony. I think it might have the right sort of angle on Ben Klibreck (not Dumyat :shock: :shock: :shock: ), to make it looks so pointy.

Close enough! It's actually from Glas Mheall Mor, but the two views would be hard to tell apart.
Over to you!
