A confusion of course on Caochan Ban above Loch Con near Trinafour This seepage from the Caochan Ban follows the mapped course of the burn but the main flow goes directly south and usurps the minor course mapped on the 1:25000 version as sourcing just south of the Caochan Ban. The previous picture on 'outflow' gives the clue - the outflow has banked up to such an extent that the burn's flow has split then 'majored'.
