Description: South-east face of Beinn Liath Mhor, Achnashellach, Ross & Cromarty. Folded and thrust Cambrian quartzite and Torridonian sandstone. Two synclinal infolds of Cambrian quartzite are separated by anticlinal cores along this ridge. The anticline bounding the western (left) infold has been largely cut out by thrusting, but the eastern anticline is virtually intact, though it is cut out progressively to the north by thrusting. The folding can be followed by following the dip of the Torridonian strata in the lower part of the cliffs.
