The cloud crowned island, Luytla-Duymun, is the smallest of the 18 Faroe Islands, located between Scotland and Iceland. This place is 0.8 square km (0.3 square miles) with the highest point, Mount Ravan, 414 meters (1,358 feet) high. The island is uninhabited, but an amazing travel destination for adventurers. The cloud crown is an phenomenon known as Orographic lift. It occurs when an air mass is forced from a low to a higher elevation as it moves over rising terrain. As the air mass gains altitude it quickly cools down adiabatically, which can raise the relative humidity to 100% and create clouds, and under the right conditions, precipitation.
