In celebration there was a big meeting of geologists in Ullapool during May. (Full web pages at http://www.see.leeds.ac.uk/peachandhorne/ which includes a link to the field guide and a link to Assynt's Geology web pages - http://earth.leeds.ac.uk/assyntgeology/). Associated with this meeting there is the "Mapping Mountains" exhibition, which you may find of interest. The story behind the geological mapping of Assynt is fascinating. The exhibition itself will be in Edinburgh in July and August and Glasgow in September. Full details and pdfs of the maps and interpretative panels are on their web pages at http://web.ges.gla.ac.uk/mappingmountains/ . I should have thought to send this to the list earlier. I'm not associated with the Mapping Mountains exhibition, but have worked closely with Rob Butler from Leeds University in setting up the Leeds web pages for the meeting.
