My local dog walk is up Fell End, above Grange over Sands in South Cumbria, and from time to time I am treated to a distant view of the Eryri hills - the most distant is Moel Siabod, 141,5km away, a mountain that I used to live in the shadow of.
One of the Abrahams brothers’ books talks about going winter climbing on Scafell and seeing Craig yr Ysfa on Carnedd Llewelyn outlined against the snow. Despite them being regular visitors to Ogwen, the Abrahams were unaware of the crags on the northern side of the Carneddau, which they then visited the following summer and I think may have put up the classic Ampitheatre Buttress route.
I have had the opposite experience of being able to see Pillar, Scafell and other fells, as well as the Wicklow mountains, from the Carneddau ridge - but Yr Wyddfa to the Galloway hills is a whole different league!
