I am up an hour later later than you are :wink:

(And I don't think that the "forest settlements" are southern Switzerland.)

The flag on that boat should be a good clue, yes?

c.i.

It one of those !

Walter has given a clue by using the term "forest settlements".

Francis has given a clue to the name of that mountain with a biblical reference.

Look up "forest" in German and compare it with your list.

Who "washed his hands of it" in the bible ?
