Scottish Highlands
United Kingdom > Scotland > Highland
The entire region was covered by ice sheets during the Pleistocene ice ages, save perhaps for a few nunataks.

Isle of Rum
United Kingdom > Scotland > Highland > Kinloch
The island's relief is spectacular, a 19th-century commentator remarking that "the interior is one heap of rude mountains, scarcely possessing an acre of level land".

Aonach Beag
United Kingdom > Scotland > Highland
Aonach Beag is linked to its close neighbour to the north, Aonach Mòr, by a high saddle or bealach. The name Aonach Beag (small ridge) might imply that this mountain is smaller than Aonach Mòr (big ridge). However, Aonach Beag is higher; the names refer to the relative bulk of the two mountains rather than…

United Kingdom > Scotland > Highland
Considering its high northerly latitude of about 57 to 58 degrees north and the mountainous terrain, the climate is mild, moderated by the warming influence of the North Atlantic Drift which is a powerful warm western boundary current within the Atlantic Ocean that extends the Gulf Stream northeastward. At low…
