[Re SGOR NA LAPAICH]
This name has been referred to the field as another hill of the
Same name occurs in Sheet 15:Trace 4; and the following is the
final examiners's Reply, There are two hills so named, being situated
about 7 miles apart, the one in 15/4 being north of Glen Cannich, the other a
considerable distance south of the same Glen, and therefore are not, as Supposed, two
rocky points of the same hill. I beg also to State that there is no doubt in the minds of the
inhabitants of Glen Affric or neighbourhood respecting the name "Sgòr na Lapaich" as applied
on Sheet 38 trace 4. Probable height 3000 feet
Loch Làpach
