Ben Nevis, the right-hand hill of the two, is the highest mountain in Great Britain at 4,406 feet.
A five mile path, starting 2.5 miles from Fort William, leads to the summit.
Just above the trees in the foreground, and in the centre of the picture, the start of the Glen Nevis road may be seen winding its way up the hillside. This is more easily seen in the larger picture.
