| Description: | North face of Beinn Liath Mhor, Achnashellach, Ross & Cromarty. Folded and thrust Cambrian quartzite and Torridonian sandstone. In right of view Cambrian quartzite dipping to the left overlies Torridonian sandstone. Just east of summit, the rocks are folded in a syncline whose easterly (left) limb is vertical to overturned. The complementary antiform, bringing up Torridonian strata to the level of the ridge, has been cut out and replaced by a thrust. A second outcrop of Cambrian strata in the left of the photo, is truncated to the left by a second thrust. |
