    Fascinating - it almost looks like Mt St Helens but the countryside has an irish/british feel about it.

    It's a great picture. The whole mountain looks like a perfect example of a volcano - I assume the summit feature is a corrie. Put us out of our misery!

    Nephin in Mayo! Unusual angle, had to go to Google images to make sure of it ha! Only been up it once, race up and down it, one of the hardest races I've ever done, open mountain with no real trails up, but plenty of crevices etc to try swallow you up!

    Does it have to be yourown image for the next one ha?

    Nephew indeed. Well done. To get that view you have to come from crossmolina going out the lahardane or rakestreet road. Correct me if I'm wrong buts it the highest standalone mountain in Ireland.

    Not an Irish peak but a North American one - pic dates from 2013. A fairly well known mountain in that part of the world.
