	Tour River Spey, Tour Scotland.
		The lovely Strath Spey is now widely famed as a tourist centre, with ski slopes on the neighbouring Cairngorm mountains, A part of the Grampian range, the great granite mountains tower up to the east as the Spey carries its clear waters down
		Known as the capital of Badenoch, Kingussie is a larger centre in the shadow of the Monadhilath mountains, with the Grampians rearing their ramparts across the river to the south and the Cairngorms in view to the east.

	Thomas Telford and Dunkeld Bridge, Tour Scotland.
		In the next place he recommended a bridge over the Spey which drained a great extent of mountainous country and being liable to sudden inundations was very dangerous to cross.
		There were numerous other subordinate lines of road which it is unnecessary to specify in detail but some idea may be formed of their extent as well as of the rugged character of the country through which they were carried when we state that they involved the construction of no fewer than twelve hundred bridges.
		The last named bridge is a remarkably elegant structure thrown over the Spey at a point where the river rushing obliquely against the lofty rock of Craig Ellachie has formed for itself a deep channel not exceeding fifty yards in breadth.

	Remarks on the Scenery of the Highlands - Part 2
		In the strath, vale, and dale, we may expect to find the large, majestic, gently flowing river, or even the deeper or smaller lake.
		The dominion claimed by each of those rivers, within the mountain ranges that environ their courses, is a strath; and three noble straths they are, from source to sea.
		And now we are brought to speak of the Highland rivers, streams, and torrents; but we shall let them rush on flow, murmur or thunder, in your own ears, for you cannot fail to imagine what the waters must be in a land of such glens, and such mountains.

	Whalebacks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		A fine group of ice-moulded rock forms can be seen at the excellent interpretative site at Dulnain Bridge in Strath Spey.
		The main structures in the rock are a strong foliation or cleavage which dips to the SE and a set of joints which trend N-S and W-E. Former ice flow was down Strath Spey towards the northeast.
		The occurrence of whalebacks and roche moutonnées side by side at Dulnain Bridge probably reflects the importance of rock structure in determining the form ice-moulded bedrock surfaces.

	A Commentary on Dance Schools
		Also, since SCAdians have adopted a canon of non-Period seventeenth- and eighteenth-century dance out of tradition ("Hole in the Wall", "Fandango", and "Scotland the Brave", for example), they might find it illuminating to perform these dances correctly and authentically under the tutelage of an expert instructor.
		We rejoiced to learn, for example, that the jumble of steps we in the SCA have been doing at the beginning of "Scotland the Brave" actually is a very simple Strath Spey setting step.
		Also, we were pleased to learn the names or origins of the various kinds of siding steps used in country dancing: the Cecil Sharpe siding step (the exchange of places) and the historical siding step (the shoulder-to-shoulder advance).
