From NE, track from road pass then open field. A barbed and netted fence with electric wires a foot on either side provided a formidable last minute obstacle to the summit but I was able to slither through a hole in the netting. | Topographer57 | 18/02/2024 |
Please note there is a double electric fence along the summit area ridge. | Crumblie2 | 26/08/2023 |
