Garynahine Forest - Lewis

Garynahine Forest - Lewis

Date Added: 24 January 2013 Contributor: Norman Davidson Year of Photo: 1977 Picture No: 1478

The photograph is courtesy of the family of George Dey. George took many forestry photographs in his forestry career and many are now shown on this web site. Check under ‘Groups’ and George Dey Collection.

David Robertson (Chief Forester – Skye) and J Campbell look over Garynahine Forest and maps of the area. The forest behind only appears to be 2-3 years old and consists mainly of Lodgepole pine.

It appears that the Lewis and Raasay Forests were part of David’s main management area of Skye. Can anyone give more details about the other gentleman J Campbell?

The PDF contains a couple more views of the Garynahine area, the lochs and a Bothan!
