Crossing Ranoch Moor from the Grampain Mountains and approaching Glen Coe one has this view of Buachaille Etive Mor. It is not nearly the highest mountain in the Scottish Highlands but it is one of the most impressive. The rock appears to have surged straight up through the landscape like some great tusk piercing the moor. There are other mountains in the area but this one demands your attention. As British photographer Joe Cornish put it, "It's not the highest mountain... but it acts like it is."
