Tricky to find true top but I made an effort and pretty happy with the spot I attained.Dusty15/08/2023

From track NW there is a clear gap which entices you in to the trees. The only top of the 4 in the forest not clear felled. Actually thats not true, this is second generation forest here and the undergrowth is a mess of dead branches and stumps from trees long gone and holes filled with water. Please take care. Secateured my way in to the 340m contour but its so thick in there that its impossible to be sure you've reached the high point. A hideous place that I'm glad to never revisit.stig_nest13/05/2016
Got as near to the top as i could but dense trees blocked my route. Will probably revisit.DARRENG30/04/2016
Dense youngish spruce still wet from overnight rain. Traversed level summit area from forest road to W. Easy drive in on excellent forest roads.RHW22/11/2014
Drove in from SSE. Visited summit at SJ 00525 14900 (clearing), also further NE seems similar height, SJ 00913 15233 (spruce) and 2 more nearby. Having reviewed map I don't think I reached the 340co though so will revisit sometime.RHW08/12/2013
