  • The Misty Isle of Skye : Its Scenery, Its People, Its Story
    THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES c.'^.cjy- U^';' D Cfi < 2 H O THE MISTY ISLE OF SKYE ITS SCENERY, ITS PEOPLE, ITS STORY BY J. A. MACCULLOCH EDINBURGH AND LONDON OLIPHANT ANDERSON & FERRIER 1905 Jerusalem, Athens, and Rome, I would see them before I die ! But I'd rather not see any one of the three, 'Plan be exiled for ever from Skye ! " Lovest thou mountains great, Peaks to the clouds that soar, Corrie and fell where eagles dwell, And cataracts dash evermore? Lovest thou green grassy glades. By the sunshine sweetly kist, Murmuring waves, and echoing caves? Then go to the Isle of Mist." Sheriff Nicolson. DA 15 To MACLEOD OF MACLEOD, C.M.G. Dear MacLeod, It is fitting that I should dedicate this book to you. You have been interested in its making and in its publica- tion, and how fiattering that is to an author s vanity / And what chief is there who is so beloved of his clansmen all over the world as you, or whose fiame is such a household word in dear old Skye as is yours ? A book about Skye should recognise these things, and so I inscribe your name on this page. Your Sincere Friend, THE A UTHOR. 8G54S7 EXILED FROM SKYE. The sun shines on the ocean, And the heavens are bhie and high, But the clouds hang- grey and lowering O'er the misty Isle of Skye. I hear the blue-bird singing, And the starling's mellow cry, But t4eve the peewit's screaming In the distant Isle of Skye.

    JOHN MUIR TRUST FACTSHEET T SKYE ESTATES N A H C R E M E Sconser, Strathaird, Torrin K I M From Gharbh-bheinn looking down to Loch Ainort and the Sound of Raasay. Marsco and Red Cuillin on the left. KEY FACTS THE LAND The John Muir Trust land on Skye is east of the Black Cuillin Ridge, Sconser and between four sea lochs – Sligachan and Ainort to the north, Scavaig and Slapin to the south. It’s a landscape of strong features and also strong contrasts. High mountain slopes including Glamaig, Sgurr na Stri and Blà Bheinn rise from sea to summit without interruption. They are also seen rising from wide peatlands, as in Glen Sligachan, and against the croftland Torrin and coastal woods of Torrin and southern Strathaird. The hills themselves may be red and rounded (the Red Cuillin between Glamaig and Marsco) or black and jagged (Bla Bheinn and its Strathaird satellites), and there’s also white limestone that outcrops and is Torrin was acquired by the quarried at Torrin. John Muir Trust in 1991, Strathaird in 1994 and The area west of the Blà Bheinn– Clach Glas–Garbh-bheinn ridge, Sconser in 1997. including Coire Dubh, is as wild as any land in Britain. Its rugged Areas nature is enhanced by its remoteness and loneliness and the absence of roads, tracks and vehicles. Torrin 2225 ha (5500 acres), Strathaird 6500 ha (15,000 The west boundary of the JMT land runs through Loch Coruisk, in acres), Sconser 3400 ha (8400 the heart of the Black Cuillin and undoubtedly the most spectacular acres).

  • Cioch Mountaineering Club, Dunfermline
    Cioch Mountaineering Club (Dunfermline) Established 1988 Newsletter #27, August 2011 Published by Cioch Mountaineering Club (Dunfermline) Unless indicated otherwise, Copyright Richard Christie Meet Report: Sligachan Bunkhouse, Isle of Skye, 1st & 2nd July 2011 With contributions from Neil Anderson, Dave Paton, David Currie and Richard Christie Jim D, Vicky, Sam, Sharon, Neil, Alison & Bruce all managed to escape the lowlands on Thursday to arrive at the Sligachan Hotel before reception closed at 11:30 pm which was good since this meant they could pick up the keys for their rooms in the Bunkhouse. One or two even managed a last minute refreshment before the bar closed. On Friday morning Jim D headed off early on his own to climb the Corbett Garbh-bheinn and then carry on to traverse Clach Glas and Bla Bheinn. When he returned to the bunkhouse late in the afternoon he had a smile on his face but described this day as interesting having got himself into some challenging situations. Alison and Bruce opted to leave the main island and took the ferry to Raasay. Alison decided it was high time Bruce had some navigational practice so handed him the map, compass and a copy of Ralph Storer’s 50 best routes on Skye and Raasay which contained a description of how to get to Dun Caan. Some to-ing and frow-ing then ensued until they realised that there was a fundamental problem which was nothing to do with Bruce’s navigational expertise – since Mr Storer wrote his book £12m has been spent building a sparkly new pier on Raasay a couple of miles north of the original ferry landing point.

  • The Edinburgh Geologist – Issue 10
    The Edinburgh Geologist No.10 Autumn 1981 Cover Illustration: Alexander Rose, F.R.S.A. (Geologist), 1781-1860. EDITORIAL 'We regard it as one of the essential requisites of our little volume that all its science be considerably diluted with gossip'. This admirable statement in Thomas McCrie's book The Bass Rock .•. , published in 1847 certainly has some application in this particular issue of our little volume. But we make no apology, for science diluted by idle conversation frequently proves more amusing and instructive than an indigestible concentration of facts. In order to standardise its distribution we have resolved to circulate the maga­ zine to all Edinburgh Geological Society members residing in Lothian, Fife, Central and Borders Regions. To save on postage the magazine will continue to be distribu­ ted at the first lecture meeting following its publication. Thereafter remaining copies will be mailed to individuals. Distribution to other members who request a regular copy will continue as before. The success of our endeavours to maintain a readable magazine depends greatly upon both amateur and professional geologists to provide the raw material. One of our difficulties in interpreting what the reader wants is that we receive virtually no feedback. We would of course, always be pleased to have your com­ ments as well as articles for publication. Refreshed in mind and body from a summer full of splendid excursions, members of the Society may look forward to an equally stimulating (mentally at least) programme of lectures for 1981-82. For example, during the first four months of 1982 the list of titles indicates considerable geological and geographical diversity (see below\.
