A crag sometimes spelled cragg , or in Scotland craig is a rocky hill or mountain, generally isolated from other high ground. Crags are formed when a glacier or ice sheet passes over an area that contains a particularly resistant rock formation often a granite , volcanic plug or some other volcanic structure . The force of the glacier Erosion erodes the surrounding softer material, leaving the rocky block protruding from the surrounding terrain. Frequently the crag serves as a partial shelter to softer material in the wake of the glacier, which remains as a gradual fan or ridge forming a tapered ramp called the tail up the leeward side of the crag. In older examples, or those latterly surrounded by the sea, the tail is often missing, having been removed by post glacial erosion.
