A quick bag from the gate. | robertphillips | 10/07/2021 |
Roadside verge parking to W side of a field gate due S of the summit (NX 4189 5518), nearly grounded the car! | jonglew | 17/05/2021 |
Parked at road jnct to SE and crossed 2 fields. | Thearlaichdubh | 18/07/2018 |
Sunny morning stroll from soft verge parking to the south to pasture summit with Adrian Rayner. Then I had to help push Adrian's car to get it off the verge. | Dugswell2 | 25/03/2018 |
5th Hill of 6 today, climbing Eggerness Hill, Knockeffric Hill, Hawk Hill and Wood Hill, crossing the Bladnoch river by wading across the shallows about 60m from stepping stones (Dalreagle steps)to then take track past Cunninghame to explore Torhousemuir stone circle and 3 standing stones in field on other side of the road, before continuing on road to Wigtown. I took the track to Kirvennie, used gate to access col then wire handle to access field adjacent to summit. Climbed over gate into field full of Jersey Cows, much friendlier than my previous cattle encounters (licking my hands etc). Edged out about 35 metres into field to find summit before uneasily returning with tonnes worth of moo moos trying to close in due to curiosity but was able to duck underneath barbed wire and then climb gap in fence to return to large rucksack before continuing on the road towards and Wigtown and my final hill..... | Dazingdale | 05/08/2017 |
