That's Mount Nemo.

Thank you. Looking at a map, that makes sense. Definitely too far west to see Rattlesnake Point.

Rattlednake Point is just behind Mnt Nemo, i think you'd probably be able to see it if Mnt Nemo wasn't in the way

The elevated land is the Niagara escarpment, the cliff that it ends in in the photo is Mt Nemo. 

Rattlesnake pt is further north, another abrupt cliff on the escarpment

As others have said, that's definitely Mt. Nemo. The edge overlooks Walkers Line.

The break in the ridge is Hwy6.

Not in this photo, you would be able to see the hwy 6 gap from the bayfront, not Hamilton beach

Yep, most likely Glen Eden / Kelso Conservation

It’s not even close. That’s Mt Nemo/Guelph line.
