River Ythan near Ardlogie

A small river meandering through a wide strath, far too big to have been eroded by its present flow, tells us that this is a glacial meltwater channel dating from the end of the last Ice Age 10,000-odd years ago. East Mains of Ardlogie, on the skyline, is in the next square. Ardlogie Farm is among the trees on the skyline at left.
