| Past glacier scouring has left a lovely knock and lochan landscape of low rocky knolls of similar height -at least 25 in all in an area of just 1km by 0.5 km centred on this summit. It would provide a fun testing sprint orienteering area - especially of the gaffle type with different overlapping loops. Oddly as with The Noup to the east -also 72m -the summit is the only one knoll here where the 70m contour is breached. | Chris Pearson | 16/04/2021 |
