From Craik Forest car park (NT 3465 0792). Crib Law first. From there forest track running SW and continued SW on an old break across clear fell to a logging road at NT 3341 0901. With difficulty found a way across to another logging road at NT 3303 0906 (masses of windthrow to negotiate) after which it was plain sailing. Returned along Catgair Edge and breaks to pick up logging road at NT 3280 0843 and back for a 11.2km round. | jonglew | 26/03/2022 |
Up from Craik on forest tracks to the north of the hill 
 Clear felled straight up from the track. | Andrew Simmons | 28/08/2021 |
From Crib Law to end of track N of top. Now clear felled. Flat top. Only found one post of old fence line. | chrisbien | 31/08/2020 |
From Archie Hill, not the easiest of links. The firebreaks are vegetated and there's been a lot of felling and new planting which obscures the mapped breaks. The break crossing the summit is extremely tussock ridden and full of self seeded trees and windthrow; I found it easier to use the reasonably open trees to the north. The mapped fence line is barely visible apart from a few decayed posts. | Colin Crawford | 01/06/2019 |
