A day on Quinag - photo 7 .
A resting spot on the walk in. Looking north with the bulk of Sàil Gharbh (808 m) beyond. This is the eastern and highest of the three spurs of Quinag and is our objective for today.
In common with the other spurs, Sàil Gharbh is capped by pale grey Cambrian Basal Quartzite (Eriboll Formation) resting with angular unconformity on the red Torridonian Sandstone (Applecross Formation) beneath.
