| Craigmurchie, borgan hill, garlick hill from the RSPB CP biked up the track. | robertphillips | 21/08/2022 |
| From the RSPB car park, good track nearly all the way. At track junction 500m due E of the top, took the short dead-end track (mapped at 25k) then peeled off SW initially a bit before its end to follow an over-grown but very serviceable old harvester track which terminated, for my purposes, at the wall. Rough and tussocky from there only. The cairn and trig are not visible from each other due to trees, but the trig gave a higher elevation on both barometric and satellite readings. | jonglew | 01/08/2021 |
| 2nd tump of 5, having climbed the Rig of the Cairn from Bargrennan then some really rough/boggy terrain, crossing the Water of Minnoch on the old packhorse bridge then following an old wall South through difficult terrain before dropping onto a good forest track over the Pulniskie Burn and Laggairy Howe then some rough forest rides including tussocks before reaching the summit area. I recorded 285m on a grassy knoll@ NX 39165 73518 and 287m @ NX 39248 73567 next to the Trig pillar on grassy/heathery land. Rough descent East before reaching remnants of track beoming better and over the outflow of Loch Middle then good track leading to a forest ride NE of Craigenteasy heading for Punch Well Brae/Largs Hill... | Dazingdale | 25/08/2018 |
