| From Nether Whitecleuch | Andrew Simmons | 15/09/2023 |
| Circular route from Wanlockhead, lots of very flat summits in mist and drizzle. Climbed Wanlock Dod fairly directly, then along ridge to Sowen Dod and Snarhead Hill, on to camp near top of Reecleuch Hill. Continued to Slough Hill and Windy Dodd. Descended E to glen but couldn't cross Snar Water where planned. Crossed just N of Snar Law and traversed to climb Rake Law and Hunt Law, back over Wanlock Dod and back to start point. | RobertP | 01/12/2022 |

| Parked at end of public road (NS 8630 1373), could easily have driven a lot further - good ungated track leads on. Followed SUW to Glengaber Hill, regained SUW at NS 8511 1491 then on to here via SW side of Nicol Burn. On to Snarhead Hill -> Sowen Dod. A wet and windy 7.5 mile round. | jonglew | 25/03/2021 |
