| Description: | Oblique aerial view from above Sgurr Thuilm, the Cuillins Igneous Complex, Skye, looking along the outer margin towards the main Cuillin ridge. The valley on the left is the Coire na Creiche. Sgurr Thuilm, in the right foreground is composed of the Outer Marginal Gabbros and Eucrites. The vertical gashes in the cliff face are igneous dykes that are preferentially eroded due to their relative softness compared with the host rock into which they are intruded. |
