This is the loch mirroring the towers of Beinn Eighe, where in 1951 eight airmen met their death when their Lancaster bomber crashed into the mountainside. Some remains of the bomber still litter the scree as a time-honoured memorial to those tragically lost that night. A brass plaque nearby the crash spot recalls the accident in what is now known as Fuselage Gully.
