Way to rocky for Helvellyn summit...My guess with High Stile and Red Pike (Buttermere) in the background
(left).It's Great Gable.
But I've been wrong before.....!!!!

Way to rocky for Helvellyn summit...ITYM far too mossy. But yes the rocks are too big for Helvellyn and I
was 96 metres higher than I would have been on HelvellynQuoted message said:

And given the fact I was higher than Helvellyn you are. In fact you
are both in the wrong country. There is a clue in the phrase "crack
this one" if you know your Gaelic.

recognise Lake District skylines) or Wales (having failed to fit the
topography against various viewpoints).The granite looks somewhat Cairngormish.

The only (?) 1045m Munro I can find is Beinn Iuthairn Mhor but I thought you
could see Binnein Mor and Na Gruagaichean in the background in the picture
and that doesn't fit. But definitely (north)wets Highlands.--

I think it might be Chno Dearg, the summit plateau would be large
enough, flat enough and stony enough.Gerald

Creag Meagaidh, with the Easains in the background.
(Reasoning: the sun must be broadly to the south because you'd aim to
be on the summit around midday / early afternoon, therefore the
picture is looking westish, which rules out the Cairngorms. There's
snow in the distance, but not where you are so something higher that
you is over that way, suggesting the Aonachs and the Ben. And your
'crack' hint suggests Creag something. And the hills in the near
background look a lot like the Easains.)Colin

...or should it be 1046m? In which case Cruach Ardrain or Chno Dearg. Never
been anywhere near either of them (summitwise) but I'll go for the former
seeing as someone's done the latter - lets say looking at Ben More and Stob
Binnein? Hmmm, they would be much higher...perhaps...Graham

🙂-)I did indeed lose my hat. It's the one I've been wearing for ages and
was rather faded and stainded and I seem to have left it behind at a
hostel. I was wearing the urw cap on this walk but it doesn't fit my
rather large bonce too well and kept getting knocked off when I was
using the camera, and it did blow off once or twice.

about at low level due to early rain. Six Munros in four walks, but
only half of them with views.Quoted message said:

the height correct. So somebody else (Idris) was correct.

Was going to say that!
Googled for some images and the summit looks very similar to the one in the

You win the prize. <ale> A day of sun, wet boggy approaches and stags
roaring.
