Description: | The Glencoul Thrust at Beinn Aird da Loch, looking north-east from summit of Cnoc Coir a' Bhaic, Sutherland. From right to left: craggy Lewisian gneiss riding on the Glencoul Thrust (feature some way uphill right of stream in centre). Cambrian strata form stream valley (centre) and bedded crags left of centre, and are unconformable on Lewisian gneiss to left. The Moine Thrust Zone forms a narrow but continuous belt of thrusting, folding and low-grade metamorphism stretching south-south-west from Eriboll on the north coast to Skye. |
