West Coast Mountains Photos

West Coast Mountains | Great photos of Scottish West Coast Mountains. The North-West Highlands in West Coast Mountains scenery was created by the dramatic collision of continents. West Coast Mountains of Scotland was originally part of North America lying south of the equator and it drifted north to collide with other mountains lands on the west coast some 450 million years ago. The resultant volcanic activity on the coast shaped the Skye Cuillins on the West Coast Mountains and other west coast mountains landscapes. Subsequent glaciation left an indelible imprint on the west coast land with mountains as evident in the scouring of Loch Hourn and Loch Broom and the corries of mountains such as An Teallach on west coast. The geology too is responsible for the amazing variety of west coast mountains landscape in Glen Shiel, Kintail, Torridon and Assynt also on the west coast part of mountains.
