Hooray! Correct!
The picture taken from high up on Sgurr Coire Choinnichean, the corbett directly above Inverie, and overlooking Loch an Dubh-Lochain

Phew! Well done jmarkb as I was about to go with Caberfeidh's suggestion to reveal the answer!

Over to you...

The skyline is part of a popular outing, not normally approached from this side...

Coire Dearg. You can make out the lochan next to Loch na h-uidhe and a little of that loch also.

Far North - not sure it's named on 1:50 000....but you should be able to get the hill.
