Sweet, Jon... is that Banahaw in the background?

i'm not really sure if that's mt. banahaw or mt. cristobal. the locals said it was banahaw though.
Aren't those two names for the same volcano?
**Never mind, answered my own question... they're referred to as the twins, good & evil... both are in that photo, with Banahaw directly behind and taller than Cristobal. The cloud cap is on Banahaw; if you look closely you can see that the cloud cap is on a peak behind a closer one.
A side view would show the two peaks as either two mountains very close together, or one mountain with two peaks... depending on your point of view...
Either way it's just lovely.
How 'bout that!
:)

spot on uncle rick, there are 2 mountains there. the locals were referring to the first one as banahaw but i recall that banahaw is supposed to be taller than cristobal. :)

i'll check if i have anything clearly showing both mountains in one frame. :D

edit: here's a pic showing both. you can see the outline of cristobal against banahaw at the back.
