Northern Exile Apr 2021 1:47pm, 28 Apr 2021 7,579 posts	0 Northern Exile Following on from Tim's "Guess the Summit" question, here's one for you: I think a distinctive shape in the background might give this one away Off you go then .... three guesses per person max and if you don't get it on the third it's the Ferret down the Pants Punishment I'm afraid.

Northern Exile Apr 2021 2:16pm, 28 Apr 2021 7,580 posts	0 Northern Exile Bugger, I should have banned you Tim Yes, it's Mellbreak in the distance with the Loweswater fells to the right. It's Graystones (the Wainwright) ..... Kirk Fell would have been a mean one for people to guess. Not that I'm averse to mean of course.
Northern Exile Apr 2021 2:17pm, 28 Apr 2021 7,581 posts	0 Northern Exile p.s. Binsey has a trig point
RooA Apr 2021 2:21pm, 28 Apr 2021 565 posts	0 RooA Binsey also has two piles of rocks.
RooA Apr 2021 2:24pm, 28 Apr 2021 566 posts	0 RooA Just not that pile of rocks. Obviously. I thought it was Melbreak I the background then second guessed myself and thought it was Catbells and guessed Binsey from rough position. I didn't go and look at anything before guessing because I don't actually mind making a tit of myself. then I went to look at my pictures and realised its not Binsey.

Lots of experience and good advice available here, from which B & B or YHA to the best fell for Grandma to climb :-)
