After Mount Shade/Clachnaben. Parked at entrance to landrover track. Through gate and up Kirkcam - heathery and more of the same to the bridge below Meluncart. Cut path by some old grouse butts to the top of the western slope gave pleasant going but then very rough to the top. Down an ATV a bit then cut across to the track NW of Hound Hillock. Much peatland restoration so cut up and wet. The Hound Hillock tracks give only the most fleeting respite before the return to the bogs to Whitelaws and beyond. Off NE to pick up the landrover track and I've rarely been so happy to find one - hideous going. Went on to Broom Hill (Pressendye).StueyB15/12/2023
A heading-home last hill of the day walk from the lay-by to the ESE. Some knee-length heather to contend with, but thankfully dry.summitter29/07/2023
Parked in layby at high point on road east of the summit. Up through deep heather and then a high deer fence just before the summit. 10 minutes. Headed on to Meluncart.Jossker26/11/2022

Small dirt pull-in to ESE on B974 (NO 6522 8232). Direct line from there over deep heather; old and new deer fences a metre before the trig pillar.jonglew28/12/2021
Track E of M. Till it turns S then cross Stag Burn and follow path to about 460m. Zigzag there after to the top. Back down to track and then follow the two deer fences N to top of K.chrisbien19/11/2021
Bagging the trig from the lay by. Deep heather but short distance.BigJ25/10/2021
A quick bag from the layby.robertphillips15/10/2021
Bitter wind for same brief heathery hoof approach and fence climb as thejackrustles but with added week old snow patches. One 'Police Aware' crunched car still awaiting removal from the ditch further down the steep bit where its icy slither ended. The snow gates were clearly not shut in time - as they often are in winter on this notoriously high, bleak, often snow blocked and steep Cairn O' Mount road. You can see a web cam of the snow gates to check out the gate / snow situation before leaving home with the tag line 'seeing is believing'.Chris Pearson02/03/2020

Here for the trigpoint. TP:UK log: Parked in handy lay-by below trig for a brief hoof up the heather to find a new deer fence that you had no choice but to climb to hug the trigpoint. Old deer fence still in place and much easier to get through.thejackrustles23/02/2019
