A tough terrain day that started and ended at the viaduct carpark and took in Clints of Dromore East, Mountain End and Craig Hill before heading up to the bigger boys of Knee of Cairnsmore and Cairnsmore of Fleet. Returned via Meikle Mulltaggart and Craigronaid to the forest track at Loch Grannoch Lodge. Best part of 6 hours in total.summitter10/07/2020
6th top of 10 on a traverse from the Deer Range car park to Gatehouse of Fleet, climbing Round Fell, Millfore hill, Meikle Mulltaggart, Cairnsmore of Fleet and Knee of Cairnsmore and then lunch behind an outcrop continuing the steep descent before continuing to Craig Hill. Conditions abated a touch as the rain had temporarily stopped. All high points explored. Onward route NE to Mountain End...Dazingdale07/10/2018
From the small car park at the forest to the south east, through the trees, felling in progress, and up through brash and deep vegetation to the top. There's a half circle of high ground with four possible bumps which my altimeter couldn't separate. from the easterly knoll, a useful set of vehicle ruts eased much of the descentColin Crawford29/08/2018
