| 2nd on a walk/jog from Westhills to Blackburn. Up from SE. Along ridge through wood - horrendous windthrow. Cattle preventing use of field to E. Down to NE. | Minto | 05/07/2020 |

| Cold and windy morning on way to meeting at Blackburn, after Storm Dennis had passed through the UK over last 3 days. A slight hill but being away from the higher hills to the west offers a good vantage point towards those bigger snow topped hills and close by a glittering Loch Skeene. From west track and woods to simple fence step over to summit mound by cattle feeder, busy with occupants - too surprised to react before I was gone again. | Chris Pearson | 18/02/2020 |
| As below, from West through woods, had a brief look for standing stone but cows in field and fields themselves didn’t look too appealing | PDuncan82 | 08/01/2020 |

| P at bend to W. Along field side then straight through wood and over wall and fence. | chrisbien | 06/08/2018 |
| A bit tricky reaching the summit as cattle were waiting to be fed immediately below the highest point. | hill walker | 14/11/2017 |
