Parked near Faskin Crescent. As others a short walk on the path in past the trees, then a short walk across the field to the summit. Less litter than expected given previous comments. Alien trig point made us smile before we took in the views and headed down through the woods and a walk to white cart water. | Buck | 10/10/2021 |

Parked on Faskin road, near Faskin Crescent. A path goes in past the trees, then a pleasant short walk across the field to the summit. Someone must have done a 'litter pick' as there was little litter around. Interesting art work on the trig point. | LizH | 17/06/2020 |

2nd tump of 6 today, after Queen's Park i dropped down to Crosmyloof station, after being offered an iced bun from a stranger i took the next train from Nitshill, to take the path that meanders through the woodland but as i got nearer i headed out into the grass pasture of this gently rounded top. The high point is 20m S of the Alien trig point.
