Tell us the story behind your photo:
We had spent a lot of the day climbing to the top of this mountain, we were all exhausted and stopped a very little bit before the top to eat lunch. We could see the top of the mountain from where we ate lunch. After refuelling we walked to the top and although there wasn't much of a view, due to the fog, seeing this rock, which stated the mountain name, Nagy-Hideghegy, and the elevation, 2834 feet, made us all so proud of what we had achieved.
