Parked below the lower reservoir dam for a circuit of 5 Tumps. 3/5PGCE01/03/2024
As gerrybowes route, parking at the end of the track, and taking the track to the beallach. Crossed the col and through a gate at NN89929 05419, then followed animal and vague ATV tracks to the high col at a gate. Good track from here (NN88937 05149), going all the way to the summit. Back to Glen Bee and on to Craigentaggert Hill.LizH29/09/2020
