| Description: | Loch a' Mhuillidh, Glen Strathfarrar, Inverness-shire. Looking east. In distance on left - glacial dry valley. At far end of loch, to left of small hill, is overflow channel cut by meltwater during the glaciation of Glen Strathfarrar. Much of the valley cut by the meltwaters has been filled in by postglacial alluvium, and the flat ground is occupied by the hydroelectric power station exploiting the waters of the Monar Dam. The loch basin has been eroded in pelite (metamorphosed mudstone), commonly garnetiferous and gneissose, belonging to the Moine Supergroup. Most of the distant hills are made of Moine psammite (metamorphosed sandstone). |
