| Round of Hill N of Glen Prosen from good packing in quarry near Buckhood. Fairly direct climb to The Goal, then along ridge to Craigs of Lethnot, Hill of Couternach, Coremachy, Cairn of Barns and Hill of Strone. Return along ridge, bypassing summits of Cairn of Barns and Coremachy, and climbed Knachly and Hill of Spott on return. Cold on the higher tops, but good views to Lochnagar and stayed dry. | RobertP | 01/08/2023 |

| Along the forestry track from Cramie, which goes all the way to Cairn Inks and as a lesser track along to Hill of Strone. Then back to cairn Inks and along minor tracks to Cairn of Barns and Coremachy. Doubled back again, this time to just shy of Cairn Inks, where a deer track gives a good run to the deer fence up to Mount Bouie, where the high point seems be adjacent the aforementioned fence. Finished by heading N then W around the forest edge back to the starting track. 4.5 hours total. | summitter | 04/11/2022 |
