| Description: | Oblique aerial view of Foinaven (Ganu Mor), one of a group of mountains including Arkle and Meall Horn, situated in the heart of the Reay Forest. Sutherland. It is a Cambrian quartzite mountain displaying lateral moraines. View looking south-west. Foinaven is composed largely of much-faulted Cambrian quartzites which weather to a pale-coloured scree. Lateral moraines can be seen following the S-shaped curve of the stream which drains off Foinaven. They formed when rock debris from slopes above a glacier fell onto the edge of the glacier. |
