The Stac,

An image from 2011 showing Stac Pollaidh, often called Stac Polly,
The English translation, Is "The pinnacle of pool river" it has a height 612m (2008ft)
The rocky crest is of Torridon sandstone and is a nunatak, (the ridge was above the ice during the last Ice age) which is why the sides are smooth, and the ridge has many pinnacles.

Interesting information Roger and a super shot. The notes about the ice age reminded me of the Parallel Roads of Glen Roy, also as a result of the ice age. Fascinating.

Best wishes Carol

A very imposing looking summit..........and I like your explanation of how it was formed. It makes a wonderful backdrop for the tree covered landscape in the foreground.

Very nicely composed and taken Roger.
