Description: | Looking north-east from entrance to Taagan, Meallan Ghobhar, Ross & Cromarty. The Kinlochewe Thrust. On the left, the summit of Beinn a' Mhuinidh consists of Lewisian gneiss thrust over Cambrian strata on the Kinlochewe Thrust (the 'shelf' below the skyline). The main cliff is of Cambrian quartzite with Torridonian forming the underlying grassy slopes. Rightwards from the waterfall the gneiss above the Thrust is itself overlain by Torridonian and Cambrian strata. |
