Strathnairn. Ann and Peter Reynolds
28 June 2026
Evidence for the Ice Age in Upper Strathnairn. There is a large variety of evidence for the last ice age in the area to the south west of the A9 at Daviot. Classic structures such as roches moutonées, eskers, kettle holes and erratic boulders are obvious. There are also outflow terraces, water escape channels, boulder trains, kames and kame terraces as well as one of only two known Jokulhlaups in the UK. This trip will try to view as much as possible during the day, rather than providing exhaustive coverage of the subject. It will be suitable for all levels of geological expertise.
