Mûthak Skug

A dramatic scar, Cropple Edge (Or. "Mûthak Skug") was an outcropping of pale rock visible from far away. Patches of heather, grass, stone-loving plants, and lichens covered it; streams flew along its base, a few gushed over the edge in the floods of spring, making for spectacular, if  miniature, waterfalls. The many nooks and crannies were used by birds and reptiles as inaccessible nesting spots  cropple was an Angmarrim dialect word for "nest").
