While storing some stuff up the loft, I found some old
photographs which I must have taken many many years ago.

But I don't know where it is!

So, for a bit of a fun competition, who can name
where I am?

You are standing before a row of stones, all looking exactly
alike. In front of you are hills, cleft by a tall waterfall.

Next?

Looks suspiciously like the Grey Mares Tail but from the
hillside to the right of it rather than from below.

It has considerable similarities to the upper reaches of
Cautley Spout (SD683975) but I don't think the
foreground fits.

Can't be bothered reading all the replies so it's probably
been got by now, anyway it's the Grey Mare's Tail
(Southern Uplands).

It's quite "interesting" trying to find a route up to the
left of it IIRC 🙂

A pat on the head? (sit under a coo?)

Seriously, no prize, just a bit of fun.

Lol, not the answer I expected, but I'm sure the hills with
a cleft by a tall waterfall have a name...

Yes, that's the right name. And I think you are right. Take
a look at google images and there are some similar pictures.

Well done! A google image search does show that it is the
Gray Mares Tail.

:-D

This could be a fun little competition for uk.rec.walking,
if people post a small part of a photo, and the others have
to guess where it is.

Any takers?

Don't count on it. It's a shame my english isn't good enough
to join in. This is one of the things why I like this group
so much. No abuse, no cranky remarks, no 'I know it all and
you don't know Jack [censored]' , just a group of friends (?)
giving advice and having fun.

What makes you think the thread is about the above
question Simon? We went off on a tangent very early on in
this thread.

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all different.
