From Stang Top. Mannequin near summit.peter4lc17/06/2022
Hoove from the county boundary at Stang Top. Visited the trig, manikin, and what I thought to be the summit. A round trip of 4.5km in 1h 20m.silverwolf_alan16/06/2022
From Stang House, effectively a circuit of Hurr Gill. Summit not obvious, and not even marked on the 1:25000 map, but we covered all of the likely ground and the trig. Lovely sunny day. Wellies helped on the summit areaRockdoctor06/03/2022

Up from Stang House where there is plenty of parking. Not many grouse around nor people who shoot them. Kept to the feint track to the east of the gill till the end of the gorge then headed up to the trig first then went on to visit the high point some way further on.Father Ted12/08/2021
MC JC O. From high point in road to E. Mossy and in parts boggy but reasonably decent walking. My 1000th Marilyn! Summit quite indistinct.Grouse butts- lots of them!Martin6611/07/2021
As others from near Stang House, up to trig first and then over to HP.PeterD27/06/2021
Hoove and Booze Moor from Shaw Side. Straightforward walk along Hurr Gill to the trig then a wander along the summit ridge to where I thought the true summit was located. Descended south to LangthwaiteGary Heath13/06/2021
Parked opposite Stang House,then up track by heavily-eroded Hurr Gill to butts.Easily up to trig and across to supposed summit,which looks lower than trig.Finally,back via the mannequin.catman26/04/2021
From Stang Top. With Alfie.Dangerous Dave11/04/2021
Stang Top 515m then along NP boundary to trig point 553m & SW to spot 554m & summit. Excellent Nordic Ski-ing conditions with decent visibility, firm snow base & a light breeze.Vin14/02/2021
From near Stang House where a good track E of Hurr Gill takes care of most of the ascent. Visited trig first and then a featureless tramp over to the hp.milimana10/09/2020
From Stang Top.Longwojo09/08/2020
Re-ascent with a GPS. On the previous visit in a mist paced the location out on a bearing from the trig. No other confirming features. A lot happier now. Nevertheless, it still looks lower than the trig.Eddie19/07/2020
Parked in the large lay by on the boundry of County Durham and Richmond, bog trot over to trig and then supposed summit, A little under Three miles in an hour. There is a few big gills to cross mainly near Hurrgill head but with a bit of care should keep feet dry.WAYNE ROWLETT07/07/2020

With val. Good warm weather. Parked on road near Stang House and Followed path on east side of stream to grouse butts then on to the TP. Half Km of wettish ground to the summit.

From Stang House, plenty roadside parking. ATV tracks mostly to trig pillar first. All flat at the top; from summit trig looks clearly higher, but guess it's been levelled.jonglew28/01/2019

From parking near Stang House, followed track along butts then open moor, trig also visited.rhalstead26/05/2018
From Stang House. A gamekeeper in an all terrain vehicle watched me all the way back from the top and kept about 250 yards from me. He zoomed off as soon as I was back on the roadtrimarc222/03/2018
4/5M parked near stang house atv track then soft ground to the top.robertphillips22/10/2017
From top of the pass where theres plenty of parking. A drive up from Stafford for a few Northern Marilyns and as the forecast was wet I elected to come here first - before the rains. The going underfoot not that bad but visibility being good no doubt helped too. Summit is barely higher than the trigpoint. A huge sky -one can only imagine what it's like to be up here on a clear starry night.stig_nest12/09/2017
With K; RM turned back after wetting ankle support in a bog. From high point on road. Terrain not terrible but a few drains/dykes to negotiate.Ashley12/08/2017
Walked up obvious keepers' landrover track on E side of Hurr Gill from Stang House. From near head of the gill- many grouse butts there- followed less defined tracks to featureless summit area so went to trig point and walked SW. I agree- the high point is much more than 200 m away. Worth visiting the trig first for orientation and better views. Back to area with lots of butts then back down the good track. E wind, sunny and dry (very dry ground), further E looked very grey.pwheeler09/05/2017
