Alan Davey Vision Quest Request

[Chris Allen]

The was one Lovecraft story which featured his journey in sleep to
mountain-tops (I think there may have been a temple on a plateau) and chasms
(winged beasts on the way, possibly), but I cannot remember for the life of
me what it was called.  Does that description ring a bell with anyone?
It may have featured cats, also, but I may be conflating it with another
story, possibly by Poe.
