Roadside verge parking at N side track/road junction for Buccleuch Farm (NT 3273 1450). Good track through East B Farm, but coos here so a lot of slurry beyond the farm. Followed track for ~1.7k (to NT 3242 1308) then peeled off for Kirk Hill then Coutlair Knowe. From there dropped down SE to pick up logging road again (lot of logging activity going on here on a weekday at the moment, but all quiet on a Sunday). Followed logging road N to break out of plantation and up to here over easy ground. On return headed over Little Bleak Law and down to meet farm track thus avoiding the coo slurry of the otward leg. Deep ford to cross though with water in speight. Overall a nice snowy 8k round.jonglew06/02/2022

P about 500m NW of East Buccleuch farm. Took track to N of hill. Then QB track to gate near forest, over 377m spot height and then almost to top. Later followed it towards forest fence where it petered out.chrisbien20/04/2021
