Dodgy park to west but easy ascent through fallen bracken up to easy grass slopes. Would be much harder in summer. | Rob Rees | 04/02/2022 |

No cairn, grassy obvious summit under dark starry skies. last of a 9 tump circuit from Glasdestry. as corona virus restrictions tighten, will this be my last hill for some time? | Denise | 22/03/2020 |
In darkness. From the SW initially on animal track over rough grass and gorse then steeply up through dead bracken to grassy shoulder and distinct grassy high point grazed by sheep. Clear star filled skies. | RichardM | 22/03/2020 |
Parked in tight verge space at disused quarry gate. Along bridleway until the gorse & bracken was a little less dense ( where fence line turns N ) then steep climb up, just as it was getting dark. | DanMaisieBex | 28/10/2019 |
Parked in Gladestry village, up lane and across pasture from SE. Bracken fairly light and patchy this way. Descended easy slopes NE to pick up BW and headed SW and SSW via Wood Farm to approach Gobe. | milimana | 01/08/2019 |
