| From SE, Glenauchie, parked on verge near entrance, mapped track then straight up, dying bracken, tussocky young plantation, via the Subtump, then via the other Subtump to Shalloch, then via track down past farm. Focussed on the P80, will return for the windfarm circuit in due course | RHW | 17/10/2023 |
| From Dersalloch Hill, facing directly into gale force wind and rain, so glad of ski googles despite the total absence of snow. Very swampy E of Baing loch, but easy up through firebreaks and well spaced trees. On to Big Hill of the Baing. | agentmancuso | 07/03/2020 |
