taken 3 years ago, near to Corravachie, Highland, Scotland

Faint Path Leading to Loch Glass
Faint Path Leading to Loch Glass
Marked on the map, this path isn't the easiest to find, but once you do it is well worth keeping on as even heading downhill in the heather here is hard work.
I have never noticed this until now, but if you zoom out of online OS maps (on this site right now at least, anyway) water depth contours are shown - pretty much a reverse of normal land contours. In isolation, these water depth maps are called bathymetric maps and the OS mapping shows that the deepest point of Loch Glass is just over 110 metres below the surface. Paper OS maps don't currently show water depth, but maybe it is coming soon.
