Description: View looking across Lochan a' Choire towards the precipitous Coire Ardair cliffs on the east side of Creag Meagaidh. Grampian Group (Dalradian Supergroup) semipelitic schists exposed in the cliffs are cut by gently-dipping microdioritic sheets; the basal overhang seen above the lochan is due to preferential erosion of one such sheet.
