Wispy and foggy. (Could describe my mental agility in these temperatures at night!)

Sierra de La Cabrera above the fog.
Spot the Griffon vulture.
Peñalara, the highest point in the Sierra de Guadarrama(2428m, 7975 feet) is on the horizon, nearly dead centre. I am at approx 5,000 feet, so considerably above Ben Nevis.

Si, ya vi al buitre leonado y la niebla encajonada. Al fondo, la cumbre nevada, supongo que será Navacerrada.

HAHA Andy, I just posted some shots from my archive :)) This is a lovely view here Andy, and I DO SEE the vulture, but saw him better by enlarging. So is Ben Nevis one of the peaks out in the distance, or near you or maybe NOT in this shot? a lovely shot Andy.

Best wishes, Sarah

Thank you, Sarah,
I will have a look at your archive shots soon,
Ben Nevis is the highest mountain in Great Britain, It is in Scotland and rises to all of 4411 feet; not very high but it is a true mountain and can be treacherous in bad weather.

Wonderful colour in the rocks and a gorgeous sea of mist. We tend to talk about hills in Scotland rather than mountains. They are not high but quickly changing weather makes them treacherous. I've seen people setting off up Ben Nevis in strappy sandals clutching a carton of orange juice to "drink at the top".
