Description: | Ben Hope from the east, Sutherland. Moine psammite mountain with basic amphibolite sill loosely termed the Ben Hope Sill. The feldspathic and siliceous psammites that form most of Ben Hope dip steadily to the south-east. This easterly dip slope contrasts with the steep western escarpment over 2000 ft. high seen in D01620. Note the large expanse of high flat peat bog in the foreground with peat diggings. This is typical Sutherland wide, open scenery with large isolated mountain ranges. |
