Can you check your answer, please ? According to this page:http://www.vedarahasya.net/jyotir.htm
and others, there is no Jyotir lingam at Almora.
OK about Jageshwar - it looks very similar to Chaiti when taken at that angle
The stone colour is different, but I thought that was just the time of day.Tim in Ireland

You are 100% correct lonelywanderer. I was in Jageswar in last October. Yes it is one of the 12 jyotirlingas .The complex also have the one & only Mahamrityunjay Temple in India. (As told by the locals/ purohits )
