Prevention is a matter of guarding the skin against the known causes. Since the sun and its ultraviolet rays would seem to be the main culprit, the most effective preventive method is sun avoidance. Limit the exposure of the skin to harmful rays by covering up and using sunscreens with at least a 15 SPF rating.
United Kingdom Mountains. The highest mountains in the UK are in Scotland in the Scottish Highlands. A mountain in Scotland with a height over 3,000 feet (914.4 m) is called a Munro. Munros are named after Sir Hugh Munro (1856â1919), who produced the first list, known as Munros Tables, in 1891.
The Corbetts are mountains in Scotland between 2,500 and 3,000 feet in height with a drop of 500 feet all round. They are named after John Rooke Corbett, who compiled the original list. The complete list of Corbetts can be found on the Scottish Mountaineering Club web site.
