Pumlumon Fawr ( a hill name that is said to derive from the same root that gives us the Lomond Hills- a connection not as evident when using the anglicised version -'Plynlimon').
In reply to Dave the Rave, Steve Perry, Llechwedd:

Nice guess but it's not Pumlumon Fawr. Much further north...

Very close.

And the winner of tonights UKC Mastermind is Wulfrunian. Well done mate!

Tomorrow I'll put some more pics on my UKC gallery so you can see where the shot was taken from and the amazing inversion we had that w/e in N Wales.
In reply to Cuillin Calling:

I knew it! as soon as someone suggested pumlumon I gave up even though I thought it was something in Snowdonia! damn it!

Ben Nevis. When you enlarge it you can see the bench. OK time for a beer.
In reply to Cuillin Calling:

Here you go then. The first two photos put Moel Hebog (aka "TheFloating Mountain") into perspective. Yep the quiz was pretty tricky but I thought it would be a dead give-away if I'd posted these pics first as there's some obvious landmarks.

As you've titled this one 'Cwm Idwal meets Hammer Horror', were you thinking of that classic film 'Which Mountain Finder General'?

Lovely pics -and an entertaining quiz by the way!
