I am trying to work out where this video was shot from:

youtube.com/watch?v=m13FQRcqugk&

I am guessing Nethermost Pike, but I can't be certain. What do others think?

I'd like to used his info for some photography of my own. Thank you!!

Thank you for you input.

I'm hoping it'll be a little quieter for our project!

I thought Ant Music or Kings of the Wild Frontier might have been appropriate as a soundtrack

Looking at it in Google Earth, its quite hard to find a location on the ground where the view of Red Tarn isn't blocked by the edge itself. Google Earth's 3D view is reconstructed from height mapping, so doesn't always match the real terrain, but I'd say it was somewhere around this point:

which as others have said is south towards Nethermost Pike.
