Nope not vrackie.

There are some clues earlier in the thread. This hill is probably rarely done on its own.

I’ll try Meallan nan Uan from Sgurr a Mhuillin then on the basis of your clue. It has roughly the right pointyness to the left of the summit, but I must admit I don’t completely recognise it, despite having been up there!

Yes, I was trying to be clever but maybe too clever this time!

To be totally picky, I think that's actually Creag Ghlas from Meallan an Uan - well that's my excuse for not getting it anyway!
They are indeed a nice pair of hills, and notable for having the shortest distance between two Corbetts.

Yes I think I selected the wrong picture when I was browsing my photo album. Still we got there in the end.
