Horseshoe from Blackshope – although new “no parking†signs made me park at a layby further north. Looped clockwise. Glorious sunny, blue-sky morning but once on ridge, clag descended, only lifting very occasionally after summit. Rounsfell04/11/2022

Parked at Blackhope on the A708, headed up the braken covered slope on the right hand side of the Hang Gill. Seen a goat on his own that let me get within 20m. By the time I reached the top of Nether Coomb Craig, the mist had started to clear, leaving blue skies behind. Finding the summit of Swatte Fell, involved a walk west along the stone dyke. Falcon Craig has a wee cairn west of the fence line. Hart Fell (a repeat hill for me) has a classic trig pillar. The walked around to the yokes, involved a drop into the boggy valley south of Cape Law, above Whirly Gill, but there is a clear path through it, that keeps you relatively high. Once on Under Saddle Yoke, the views into Carrifan showed the rewilding project is really taking hold. Short ascent to Saddle Yoke, then the descent back to Blackhope, during which I seen a flock of 8 goats. Dry all day, 06:10hrs all in.chillyman810/09/2022

PMC Day Meet, with Dave Scott: Had planned on doing the standard Hart Fell circuit around Blackhope Burn, but there signs on the A708 saying road closed. So prked on the A701 at the forestry gate north of the Devil's Beef Tub layby. Headed up Annanhead Hill, Chalk Rig Edge, then along to Whitehope Heights and Whitehope Knowe, dropped down then ascended up to Hart Fell, for 1pm three hours after starting. Descended down a boggy atv track over Arthur's Seat and down to Eirkstane Farm, ten followed the Annandale Way back to the car. Windy, but mainly dry and overcast.chillyman813/03/2022
