BATHYMETRICAL SURVEY OF 



There are three depressions over 700 feet in depth. The main one 

 is nearly 5 miles in length, with a maximum breadth of two-fifths of a 

 mile, extending from nearly 4 miles from the west end of the loch to 

 within 2J miles of the east end. The other two depressions are small; 

 one lies about half a mile to the west of the main depression, and is 

 three-quarters of a mile in length; close to its western extremity lies 

 the third depression, which has a length of about one-third of a mile. 



The 600-feet contour encloses an area which is 1\ miles in length, 

 extending from about 2 miles from the west end of the loch to 2 miles 

 from the east end.

The 500-feet contour encloses an area extending to over 7^ miles in 

 length, reaching from If miles from the west end of the loch to about 

 2 miles from the east end. 



The 400-feet contour encloses an area over 8| miles in length, 

 extending from 1J miles from the west end to 1 mile from the east end 

 of the loch. 



The area over 300 feet in depth is 9J miles in length, extending 

 from nearly 1J miles from the west end to a little over half a mile from 

 the east end of the loch. There is a small detached area of over 300 

 feet in depth, about 5 acres in extent, near the north shore, a quarter 

 of a mile to the west of Brinacory island.
