Not quite, the name of the pass I'm looking for is from where this pic is taken, its not Elandshoek or Lotheni, only one option remains...

Do you remember my Bannerman Face one a few months ago? It was so obvious to me from having sat in that spot on 3 different occasions, but nobody go it.
Any way, Justin's up since he won the last round...

Ok - I'm actually gonna push in here...
Let's do something a bit different.
The middle peak above is a khulu, the photo was taken on the GT2012. I am looking for 3 things:
- What is the name of the khulu (it is named on the map)
- Where was I when I took the photo (hint: I set up my tent before I took the photo)
- And how about this for a chalenging question: what day of the week was the photo taken on
Ok - the above might sound rediculous, but if you get the peak right its very easy to get the other 2 bits of info off my GT writeup. But just to make it a bit easiler, we started the GT on 21 April 2012 and finished on 1 May 2012. If I get 3 wrong answers I have about 20 more clues.

Ok - here's a clue:
Campsites by day:
- Day 1 above Mzimude Pass for the team, but I was back at Isicutula Pass with altitude sickness and mild hypothermia (in no state to take photos)
- Day 2 was near the top of Sandleni Pass
- Day 3 was in the Senholong valley
- Day 4 was above Hlathimba Pass
- Day 5 was behind Langies Pass
- Day 6 was behind Leslie's Pass
- Day 7 was in the Yodeler's Valley
- Day 8 was resupply day and we camped near Tseketseke Pass
- Day 9 we camped at the source of the Orange River
- Day 10 we camped above the top of Icidi Pass
- Day 11 we camped at Witsieshoek
The photo was taken at about 5PM and with 18X zoom.
I will confirm partially correct answers (e.g. if you say what day of the week you think it was on)...
Ps. here is a photo from the same spot looking back at the tents:

I think it's time to resurrect the longest thread in VE history 
A night in JonWells' fake Goats Cave for the first correct answer!

I'm going to take a shot at it by saying its the spot near the base of Ships Prow Pass.
It looks really familiar, but not somewhere I have been.
