This week it's been technology:8, Tortoise:1. But I didn't nick your comment. A solution: my photo shouldn't be hard for you to pick. Then put yours back up. :)

Can't be bothered dealing with that one again - it's a cropped image from a bit below Mersey Crag.
(The wind yesterday had power and internet dropping in and out - mostly out - for most of the day, so I''m blaming that.)

I see something that looks like Picton behind something I don't recognise behind something that looks a bit like the Dragon (the one on the Beggary Bumps) but probably isn't.

You're right, it isn't. Not humungously far away, though. I can see the likeness with Picton, but Picton isn't on the end of a long plateau.

I perhaps should have been more specific. If you're thinking Central Plateau Conservation Area, then is it in the WoJ NP?

It is in neither. Think a different NP.

WoJ was closer.
This is a famous NP but not the most famous lake within it.
