Came across from trig at White Hill although the paths were a little indistinctPhil299713/08/2023
7/7 From small layby at 007135 after checking out Buckstones bouldering but only had time to do a couple of easy ones and an ice lolly. Path north soon peters out, rough ground north to fence. Noticed a red (and white) herring non high point metal girder with flag on a stick south of fence. Actual hp north of fence arbitrary but decent views north. Grand evening.Nick Canute10/06/2023

Evening walk to find the summit, having been up here a few times without seeking it out in the past. From Pennine Way car park to south. Up to White Hill trig. Followed obvious path down and along the edge, not the fence. This is a drier route. Pulled up to summit once in line with it.meltdiceburg10/10/2022
Diversion off Pennine Way, from trig on White Hill. 1.3km each way.PGCE08/04/2022

Parked in the huge lay by where the Pennine way crosses the A672 and followed the national trail to the trig on white hill and then made my way over to Way stone edge, Three and half mile in an hour and half.WAYNE ROWLETT15/10/2021

As others from car park to trig point then followed footpath then fence line then over to top. Not as boggy as expected and better views then I expected, with a little walking around. Found bamboo stick in ground. Lovely weather for it, on my own.Walkingthedog05/03/2020

14:00, 10 degrees, not much wind, mist. From car park to south via Pennine Way, White Hill and fence. Boggy, cane in ground is probably the 'summit' feature. Worth it only for the exercise and company (Miranda).Wycombe Wanderer03/11/2019

With E. From the car park by Windy Hill transmitter. Potholes bad but all the rubbish left = sad. Path to White Hill (Moss Moor) trig point then fence line to summit where someone has left a small stake to mark. Also went to small cairn (SD9992814045) just to be sure summit bagged. Not too boggy for time of year. Bright sunshine and windy.Beeliner17/02/2019

Parking area at SD983714222 then ran along P/Way to White Hill. NE across moor to summit. Nice moorland + dogs startled a mountain hare on the way back. Ran with Mart + Pete plus dogs. Cracking tripJohn Eley10/11/2018
Revisited as I have not been that way for a while, I don't remember the trod along the fence from before but it does make it easier. I cut across to the A640 afterwards because I wanted March Haigh (Unlisted). That required a lot more effort.Aimless Rambler28/10/2018

Dusty Springfield had a hit entitled In the Middle of Nowhere. Now I know where it was written. Approached from the south where there a few car park spaces. Rough moorland but thankfully frozen and not wet bog. GPS essential today in the thick fog.Campbell Singer09/01/2018
Parking area just S of junc 22. Good track through snow to trig pillar then across rough snow-covered haether and tussock grass to the HP.jonglew27/12/2017
Blizzard conditions but just enough light to bag this one after pillar.Dusty25/11/2017
