Ben Lomond
Ben Lomond (, ), , is a mountain in the Scottish Highlands. Situated on the eastern shore of Loch Lomond, it is the most southerly of the Munros. Ben Lomond lies within the Ben Lomond National Memorial Park and the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, property of the National Trust for Scotland. Its accessibility from Glasgow and elsewhere in central Scotland, together with the relative ease of ascent from Rowardennan, makes it one of the most popular of all the Munros: it is estimated that around 30,000 people reach the summit each year. On a clear day, it is visible from the higher grounds of Glasgow and across Strathclyde. Ben Lomond's summit can also be seen from Ben Nevis, the highest peak in Britain, over away. The West Highland Way runs along the western base of the mountain, by the loch. Ben Lomond's popularity in Scotland has resulted in several namesakes in the former English colonies Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Uni ...

Lomond, Newfoundland And Labrador
Lomond was a logging town in Newfoundland, Canada, located southeast of Woody Point near Bonne Bay. It developed out of the decline of the fishing industry in the area in the early 20th century and the rise of the logging and pulpwood industries. It was leveled for the creation of the Gros Morne National Park, all of its residents having been resettled as part of the Newfoundland government's general resettlement programme of the 1950s and 1960s. The park's Lomond campground is on the site of the town; by the end of the 20th century, the only structures there were park buildings.
