Summary[edit]

Description
English: Inveraray Highland Games - Tossing the Caber (1). The Challenge Caber used at Inveraray is probably the largest in use at Highland Games. It is 21 feet 6 inches long (6.5 metres), compared to the typical caber at 18 feet (5.5 metres) weighing 150 lbs (68 kg).

The competitor must toss the caber so that it turns end over end. The judge then gives a score based on how it lies when it lands - with an imaginary clockface on the ground in front of the competitor. A caber lying at 12 o'clock will get maximum score. See 981277
