| Parked at the start of the lane to the mast. Up the lane, then old mown track to fence. Short bit of rough ground to summit. | PGCE | 30/04/2023 |
| along the mast road visited both areas. | robertphillips | 22/01/2023 |
| As others parked by the mast road end. Easy walk up and short section over rough ground. | Andrew Simmons | 22/12/2021 |
| Verge parking immediately east of the post office mast access track. Easy metalled road as far as the tower. Then a plod through deep heather towards the visible forest. Trees immediately over the fenceline have now been felled leaving the OS spot height right on the edge of the remaining forest. | moorsman | 01/10/2021 |
| From N. Room for a car at the gate. Road to BT radio station then across the rough grass/heather > Corby's Crags. | JohnR | 21/01/2021 |
| Via the big masty thing (apologies for the technical jargon here) - then deep heather - crossed the bwf where it had fallen over. | maknipe | 09/06/2020 |
| Via mast track to north. Area partially felled - just to south of both tops. A good track leads N-S between tops (NU 1376 0955) and the ride from the open access land leading to this is in the felled area | carole engel | 17/08/2019 |
| Both tops done plus the trig | Adrian | 12/10/2018 |
| As others, track to mast (much rubbish at side) then over to fence. Fence SSE to gates, grassy ride to W to road. N along this short way to RHW's 'new hollow' - now a small tarn. Will be picturesque when vegetation grows. W summit on banking on far side. Then pushed through trees to E summit at side of overgrown ride. Through trees to regain fence then visited trig, passing three boundary stones on the way. | Aye Jimmy | 18/06/2016 |
| Same approach as RHW, then across fence at boundary stone at 13799,09838. From there a vague gap in the forestry led to RHW's east top, which coincides with the 253m spot height on OS | Crib Goch | 03/03/2016 |
| From nne, locked gate, road to mast, mapped rides from SE of summit, main summit by very new hollow by very new stone road. 50m fight/crawl to East summit then narrow ride ne to forest edge with BS 'NAM' Saw trig pillar didn't revisit | RHW | 10/10/2015 |
