An interesting fact I learned about Glenveagh recently; the loch runs from south-west to north-east along the Owencarrow rift, formed in the Paleozoic age (520 million years ago), which eventually links to the coast at Fanad and onward under the sea to the great Scottish Rift Valley that divides Scotland in two through to Loch Ness. If you look at a map, you'll see what I mean.
Great thread, by the way. Only seeing it now. Some lovely photography. I might add a few more, if y'all don't mind...
