Kilt Rock is a series of kilt-shaped basalt cliffs rising vertically from the sea to a height of approximately 35 m. They are located 1 km south of Staffin, east of the A855 on the Trotternish peninsula of Skye in Scotland. Between 61 and 55 million years ago there was considerable volcanic activity in this part of Scotland. Both the Cuillin in the south of Skye and this northern part of the Trotternish peninsula were formed at this time. The area was covered by molten rock, a layer of rock over 1200 m thick. The rock pillars were formed as the molten rock, slowly cooling, worked its way through the older Jurassic sandstone.

The Old Man of Storr is one of the most famous and visited sights. It is a 55 meter high peak of basalt rock, the remnant of a 2.8 billion year old volcanic plug. The walk to the summit is suitable for most weather conditions, although on a wet day the path can become muddy and there is always a danger of falling rocks along the path at higher levels. The walk is approximately 3.8 kilometers long and takes an average of 1 hour and 15 minutes. It is advisable to bring suitable clothing for changes in the weather and wear sturdy footwear for the walk. Despite the site's popularity, it is still possible to enjoy the peace and quiet, especially if you visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon.

Stob na Broige is the Munro at the south western end of Buachaille Etive Mòr. It is usually approached from Stob Coire Altrium having first climbed up to the higher Munro, Stob Dearg. When I first climbed Buachaille Etive Mòr, this wasn’t a Munro, then the SMC fiddled with their list and it became one. I had to come back and climb the whole ridge to include it but I have been back since and repeated them again and I now feel Stob na Broige justifies its Munro status
