| Description: | Allt Breac, looking downstream, Daless, Findhorn Valley, Nairnshire. Cliff sections in the Allt Breac Valley showing glaciofluvial fan-delta deposits overlying till. Marginal terrace 305 m. O.D. of sand and gravel overlying boulder clay, marking a stage in the retreat of Findhorn glacier. Note the smooth gently-sloping surfaces, it is probably made up of gravel, sand, silt and some clay. The terrace is now being denuded by stream and torrential erosion. |
