Parked at the cattle grid by the Megget Stone. Talla Cleuch Head (the deer fence is well-gated so it doesn't matter which side of it you're on), back to Cairn Law, Broad Law, Hunt Law, back to Cramalt Craig and finally Clockmore. Steep descent to the road and a lovely walk back to the car in the evening sun.tsharp04/08/2022
Layby parking 20m N of private road to Patervan NT108285. Through gate on R just before Patervan Farm - dirt road leads N around to gate through electric fence, where ATV tk starts steeply up N edge of trees. When ATV angle eases off, it becomes a linear quagmire over Birkside Law, then more solid ground on to Hunt LawIsbjorn07/06/2022
Parked on the A701, north of the access to Stanhope. Walked up past Stanhope Farm and turned off up a track at the first sheepfold, to Taberon Law (636m). Dropped down an ATV track past lots of grouse butts, straight down to the ford over Stanhope Burn. Followed the stony track, then ATV track for the 30m of ascent to Hunt Law (639m). Picked up another ATV track back down to Stanhope Burn, downstream of the ford, where was a wee footbridge, then back to the car all the track past the farm. Good views if overcast, souterhly wind, no problems.chillyman817/04/2022

Solo from P at Hearthstane on A701, through farm and onto junction with track running N skirting W side of forest and contiuing over bridge over Polmood Burn. Turned R, SE, along old track, shown on OS map, for 2.5 km to a hut and forked L up newish track, climbing steeply to sharp L, then 90 deg, R turn and followed it onto high point where a worn atv path on L gave access to summit of HL.

A big ambitious running bagging day with Darren on snow covered hills. quickly down form Broad Law to Great Knock over Brown Knowe then down and up to Hunt Law. Trying to sweep up any top over 600m and Birkside Law (500 m top)was just too far off route to add to an already big day with an uncertain outcome against darkness.Chris Pearson12/04/2013
Dropped down from Cramalt Craig over Sherraside rig and new road cutting across at bottom then up to top of Hunt Law.derekblackburn19/03/2011
In Moffat for a couple of days, day 1 started solo near the high point of the road between the Talla & Megget reservoirs near the Megget Stone. Straight up the slope NW out to Talla Cleuch Head & then following the boundary to Broad Law. Then NE until just short of Cramalt Craig & then NW following the boundary to Hunt Law. Retraced steps most of way back & turned NE then N over Dun Law & Fifescar Knowe to Dollar Law. Followed the boundary all the way back to Cramalt Craig before heading SE over Pykestone Knowe & Clockmore before dropping down the steep & heathery slope to the reservoir & then a wander back along the road. A warm, sunny day where I misjudged the amount of water I needed.NotReallyABagger31/08/2010

After taking in Broad Law and Cramalt Craig came over this one on the way back to the car on the A701. Broad Law had been out of the clouds but this one was well and truly in it so no views. Lovely steep descent off it though.garyhoney31/12/2008
