| Caption: | Oblique aerial view of Loch Glencoul whose waters fill the valley overdeepened by glaciation. |
| Description: | The foreground is composed of Lewisian gneiss and thin lines of trees can be seen following the epidiorite bodies which cut across the gneiss. The line of the Glencoul Thrust plane can be seen cutting across the peninsula between Loch Glencoul and Loch Glendhu. View looking east. To the left of the loch is peninsula Aird da Loch and higher, Beinn Aird da Loch on which a thrust mass of Lewisian gneiss rests on top of Cambrian rocks which in turn rests unconformably on Lewisian gneiss. |
