| From the cemetery car park in Peebles. Up via Jedderfield, and back via the Cross Borders Drove Road. A bit through the forest after Jedderfield where the path becomes a field, but pretty good going the whole way. | Tisteln | 26/11/2023 |
| 3/4 Black Meldon from the Toilet Block, back down and then White Meldon, Hamilton Hill and South Head Hill as a nice circuit on other side of the road. A pretty Glen lots of campers and a lot of rubbish unfortunately people not bothering to tidy up. | nickywood1 | 04/09/2023 |

| Up along the track to Jedderfield which takes you though the golf course the path continues and brings you out to the south of the mast. Nice ridge walk to the top. | Andrew Simmons | 29/06/2021 |
| There are 7 springs on the walk between Standalane and Jedderfield, which is a lovely walk in itself with outstanding views of Peebles. I've done that walk many times in the last 60 years but I've never been to the actual summit. Today, I summited with brooding dark clouds giving the occasion atmosphere. | BigJ | 03/06/2021 |
