Description: | Oblique aerial view of Sgurr nan Gobhar, Cuillins, Skye. Part of the Cuillin Complex, a multi-centred major igneous complex that is found in this part of Skye. Sgurr nan Gobhar ridge showing a well-developed arete. The gashes in the slope in the foreground are caused by weathering along dykes, minor igneous intrusions that occur in great numbers across the Cuillins. Note the very well-developed scree slopes. |
