Trotternish is the northernmost peninsula of the Isle of Skye, in Scotland. One of the peninsula's better-known features is the Trotternish landslip, a massive ridge that runs almost the full length of the peninsula, around 19 milies. This was taken from the upper slopes of the Quirang, another part of the ridge.

This view is of the Black Cuillin on the Isle of Skye from the top of Bealach na Bà. The Black Cuillin is a range of mountains at the south end of the Isle of Skye, off the west coast of Scotland. Bealach na Bà is a winding, single track road through the mountains of the Applecross peninsula, in Wester Ross in the Scottish Highlands. The historic mountain pass was built in 1822 and is engineered similarly to roads through the great mountain passes in the Alps, with very tight hairpin bends that switch back and forth up the hillside and gradients that approach 20%. It boasts the steepest ascent of any road climb in the UK, rising from sea level at Applecross to 626 metres (2,054 ft), and is the third highest road in Scotland. The name is Scottish Gaelic for Pass of the Cattle, as it was historically used as a drovers' road.
