Along the east side of Daer Reservoir, taking the track to Shiel Burn, from where an ATV route goes all the way to Earlside. Headed northwards, taking in the newly re-planted Mosshope Fell then Beld Knowe and on to Hods Hill, the ridge path making things very straightforward. We continued on to the windfarm track riddled summits of Wintercleuch Fell, Horse Pow Hill and Tomont Hill, returning to the reservoir head via the track along the southern flank of Lion Hill.summitter12/08/2021
