Cold landscape of Winter Snow with deep drifts & isolated Caledonian lonely Pines trees on Invercauld Estate Moorland, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, UK
The Caledonian Forests were formed at the end of the last ice age. Forests of this type were found all over what is now the island of Great Britain for a short period, before the climate began to slowly warm and the pinewoods retreated north into the Scottish Highlands, the last remaining climatic region suitable for them in the British Isles.
