Dyke outcrop Although much of the area comprises horizontal lava flows, there are regular features caused by the intrusion of dykes into the basalt formation. Here is a complex, composite feature making a small promontory on the shore of Loch Scridain. Complex geology does not detract from a particularly fine view of Ben More.
