A 1:15000 scribed orienteering map of the forest behind Pluscarden Abbey, Morayshire. The forest is runnable with a lot of clear felled coupes. The clear fell symbol used is a yellow and white diagonal striping screen which was used a fair bit at this time. A small sheet and a very attractive map. M19 - M35 course overprint.

East Monaughty 1980. Clearfelling soon took this forest off the fixture list. I would have spent a lot of time on an EUOC bus to get there. Premarked maps were a well loved luxury at this time.
