From Afton CP via William's Castle, then Black Hill, Wedder Hill, Millaneoch Hill, Windy Standard, Jedburgh Knees, Trostan Hill, Dugland, across the Clennoch Burn to Keoch Rig and return. Afton is now surrounded by the sprawling and expanding ugliness of Brocklog Rig wind farm. To add insult to injury, construction workers were putting up a radio mast on the summit of Keoch Rig as I arrived | Nick Down1 | 24/03/2018 |

W Jenx from Afton reservoir car park (closed due to tree fall but still space nearby). Track to Black Hill then fence line around forest and Wedder/Millaneoch to the travesty that's the windfarmed top. Scandalous. Back same way on cold New Years day | nordicstar | 01/01/2012 |

Wedder Hill, Milaneoch Rig & Windy Standard in thick mist from track a mile to N of Afton dam, with Fiona. | agentmancuso | 30/11/2002 |
A cold but clear Christmas Day jaunt with Shaky from Glen Afton. Parked short of Craigdarroch & took higher of two tracks above waterworks. R branch at the fork up to edge of forest near Black Hill & then followed boundary over Wedder Hill, Millaneoch Hill to Windy Standard. At the time, wind turbines were a novelty(!) but the area is as good as ruined now. Curved generally E towards Alhang & on to Alwhat & Meikledodd Hill. With daylight running out we headed due W over rough stuff aiming at the Alwhat burn & forest firebreaks leading to track round reservoir back to the car. Met lady shepherd with dog on track who agreed that this was all much better than mince pies & booze in front of the telly! | NotReallyABagger | 25/12/2001 |
