Circuit from Yarrowford, parking in area by telephone box. Climbed Foulshiels Hill, on to Hareshaw Hill, Southern Upland Way to Broomy Law, Brown Knowe, Hare Law. South to Wanders Law, then descent S (some rough ground but clear of trees) and on to Old Hill and Tinnis Top. Returned via tracks N of A708. Cold largely frozen ground. | RobertP | 15/01/2024 |

Parked in residential area in Yarrowford (NT 4068 3007). Took the track for Minch Moor visiting Brown Knowe, Hare Law and Minch Moor first. Then backtracked to a bit E of Hare Law to pick up a not very well defined mapped track heading S to Wanders Knowe, after which it was roughly S over rough heathery ground to cross Lewenshope Burn at NT 3763 3093 and pick up a good mapped track for ~500m then steeply up the NNE nose of Old Hill. On to Tinnis Top and return for a breezy 18k round. | jonglew | 01/02/2022 |
