Easy.
Aug 17, 2008 at 8:02 pm #1447479Wow! Scotland?
Aug 17, 2008 at 11:44 pm #1447497Cross Fell?
Aug 18, 2008 at 12:48 am #1447505It is Scotland aye, the shot is taken from the summit of Carn Dearg looking West. The cloud inversion is over Rannoch Moor and the hills in the distance are the Black Mount and the pointed one to the right of centre is Buachaille Etive Mor.
It's about 0600hrs and well below 0degC, a fantastic morning :o)Aug 18, 2008 at 1:36 am #1447509Here's another view of Buchaille Etive Mor and the heads of Glens Etive and Coe taken from Sron na Creise.
Roger: I wish that was the view into the Lake District from Cross Fell! Only 50 miles from my home rather than 400!
Aug 18, 2008 at 5:31 am #1447524Is that snow year round or seasonal?
Aug 18, 2008 at 6:13 am #1447526Aug 18, 2008 at 9:08 am #1447542Pete: Didn't the Ben have a more or less permanent 'glacier' on the top until the late '70s?
I did the three peaks (highest tops in England Wales and Scotland) one weekend in 1978 in mid may and was trail breaking through thigh deep snow all the way up Ben Nevis. This and the slow minibus we were using put paid to our 24 Hour hopes, we finished in around 30.
Cream crackered afterwards I was. :o)
Rod: I took that shot of the Buachaille in early Feb 2005
Aug 18, 2008 at 1:51 pm #1447570Scotland offers so much to those who have yet to discover it. I thought I would add to the contrubution from Pete and Rog.
Aug 18, 2008 at 3:33 pm #1447585is it?

what ace photos; the inversion is really lovely.
Here's one I took on Skye last week (I managed to get my 14 year old son – who is a genius but a total slacker – up Blahbeinn.
And this is one of the hills around Loch Mullardoch )I forget which now, put could answer if required), taken last April.
Aug 23, 2008 at 5:31 pm #1448272Magic shots there.
I won a watch again last night on Ben Lomond.Aug 24, 2008 at 3:20 am #1448312Sigh, drool, drool, sigh.
Aug 24, 2008 at 5:18 am #1448316Blooming heck, well done on the watch – what was the event you won it in?
