Yes! :clap: :clap: :clap:

The first photo is the ridge between Trum y Ddysgl and Mynydd Tal y Mignedd, where it narrows to a thin arete for a short distance.

The second one is a mile or so to the east, looking along the ridge from Y Garn.

over to you!

Heck, this is obviously more difficult than I thought... so an other clue:

Save for one letter, the name of the ridge could be the name of a hilly Scottish island...

You're above Llangollen, probably on the flanks of Castell Dinas Bran, looking over towards the Llantysilio Mountain hills.

It's where I went to school, climbing Dinas Bran was often done in at lunch break
