| Boreland hill and Redbank hill from East Lodge | Andrew Simmons | 31/03/2023 |
| Down and up from Criffel, very rough going. Continued on North over Meikle Hard Hill & Tunnock Hill to find track to Glen Craig. Absolutely brutal going through the heather. | agentmancuso | 25/03/2022 |
| Boreland hill and redbank hill from east lodge. | robertphillips | 06/03/2022 |
| Out and back from Criffel summit. Very hard work, but no obviously better option. | mae | 05/01/2022 |
| From Criffel, over pretty grim heather and mossy tussocks. Certainly a fine view but enjoyment was tarnished by the fact that i had to face the return trip to Criffel. Nith catchment completed | Colin Crawford | 19/08/2020 |
| From Criffel. Rough going. Half way along there was a pleasantly well-built wall to cross. Then more rough going to Cuil Hill. It was so bad that I thought it better to cut down through brash to a forest road. | Alan Moore | 10/05/2018 |
| Up forest tracks from SSW. Thetussocks are very hard going. No view due to mist. | cjo | 02/12/2017 |
| After Criffel. Heathery, tussocky, wet. What a waste of time... until summit reached, then what a view to the SW; made it worthwhile - just! | jonglew | 06/04/2017 |
