Description: Looking south-east from the south-west side of Loch Glencoul, 1.6 km. south-east of Unapool House, Sutherland. Lewisian gneiss in the foreground is followed unconformably by Cambrian quartzite and Fucoid Beds (lower part of hillside). The line of trees marks the zone of imbrication above the 'sole'. A little higher is the outcrop of the Glencoul Thrust. Above the Glencoul Thrust rise the dark crags of transported Lewisian gneiss. Thrust gneiss also forming the hills on the left. In the middle distance is the Stac of Glencoul formed of Moine schists carried on the Moine Thrust.
