  • Quaternary of Scotland the GEOLOGICAL CONSERVATION REVIEW SERIES
    Quaternary of Scotland THE GEOLOGICAL CONSERVATION REVIEW SERIES The comparatively small land area of Great Britain contains an unrivalled sequence of rocks, mineral and fossil deposits, and a variety of landforms that span much of the earth's long history. Well-documented ancient volcanic episodes, famous fossil sites, and sedimentary rock sections used internationally as comparative standards, have given these islands an importance out of all proportion to their size. These long sequences of strata and their organic and inorganic contents, have been studied by generations of leading geologists thus giving Britain a unique status in the development of the science. Many of the divisions of geological time used throughout the world are named after British sites or areas, for instance the Cambrian, Ordovician and Devonian systems, the Ludlow Series and the Kimmeridgian and Portlandian stages. The Geological Conservation Review (GCR) was initiated by the Nature Conservancy Council in 1977 to assess, document, and ultimately publish accounts of the most important parts of this rich heritage. The GCR reviews the current state of knowledge of the key earth-science sites in Great Britain and provides a firm basis on which site conservation can be founded in years to come. Each GCR volume describes and assesses networks of sites of national or international importance in the context of a portion of the geological column, or a geological, palaeontological, or mineralogical topic. The full series of approximately 50 volumes will be published by the year 2000. Within each individual volume, every GCR locality is described in detail in a self- contained account, consisting of highlights (a precis of the special interest of the site), an introduction (with a concise history of previous work), a description, an interpretation (assessing the fundamentals of the site's scientific interest and importance), and a conclusion (written in simpler terms for the non-specialist).

It has been another busy summer with lots of tourists, but parking is still a massive issue and was not helped by the car park extension not going ahead as had been promised (hopefully, it will be in place next year). Unfortunately, there were also eight commercial break-ins in Fort Augustus during July and August which is very concerning but the police have stressed that local residential properties are not at risk as this group are targeting commercial premises who have been advised as in the CC Minutes.

  • A Lap of Loch Ness on Mountain Bike Tracks and Quiet Roads
    A Lap of Loch Ness on mountain bike tracks and quiet roads with the Highlands’ bike hire experts 1 www.TicketToRideHighlands.co.uk a Lap of the Loch Around Loch Ness by bike on mountain tracks and quiet roads A four day tour around one of the most beautiful lochs in Scotland and certainly the most famous in the world, combining some strenuous off­road tracks with some easier riding on quiet roads. Starting and finishing in Inverness, the scenery and views are great throughout the trip, with the added excitement of a possible glimpse of the elusive monster, keep your camera handy. Loch Ness is a quite unique body of water. You would expect that a loch large enough to contain the whole world’s population (yes really!) to be enormous, and Loch Ness really is a monster. But although it's hugely deep, the loch is only about 23 miles long and a mile wide. The countryside surrounding the loch is very scenic, with hidden glens, ruined castles and friendly villages to explore. The route on the north side makes use of the Great Glen Way, a walking and cycling route, that is rough in some places while in others offers pretty easy cycling and is car­free for almost its entire length. On the south side of Loch Ness you have a choice, the newly opened South Loch Ness Trail for mountain bikes and walkers, or quiet back roads with very little traffic. Of course, you can decide which route to choose when you see them, or mix the two together depending on how adventurous you feel.
