| Description: | Oblique aerial view of Sgurr Ban, Ross and Cromarty.The dip-slope of Cambrian with underlying Torridonian sandstone immediately behind. Note the well-developed scree on the quartzites. The beds are inclined at an angle of 16-30 degrees in an east-south-east direction. Sgurr Ban was noted for having the only evidence of organic life in the lower division of the Cambrian quartzites in the whole of the north-west Highlands - vertical worm-casts were recorded on the crest of the ridge on the north side of the mountain. |
