Great photos, thelonious! And how I envy you having actually been there! The RCAHMS website ["Canmore"] quotes Grieve's 1923 description of it. I note that there is no mention of ot in the Relevant OS Name Book -- because it doesn't appear on the 1st ed 6-inch-to-mile OS map. I'd be interested to know just how far back the name is recorded. Anyway -- great photos!
