Okey doke, here's another one. I thought I posted this recently, but apparently I didn't.

Reminds me of one end or the other of Olympus, which would put you on either Othrys or Lamonts. But the boulder field around Lamonts was so annoying I didn't get any photos from there to use for comparison and it looks too high and too close to be Othrys.

Not Olympus, not Othrys nor Lamonts. What I'm looking at is visited vastly more often than what I'm on. The clue in there is probably no help, as it's just as fuzzy as the people.

I don't mind the boulder field around Lamonts, except when it's covered in ice. :roll:

Stood there on my honeymoon 40 years ago - but a bit of a "discussion" on how to get the bride down off the top..

Sorell is correct! I think we were just above that really steep point when I took this shot.

For some reason we decided to descend further south than our (good) route up. We ended up finding umpteen bluffy bits that meant retracing steeply back up several times. :roll: Your photo brought back some vague memories of similar terrain. Next:
