After Hart Fell. Followed wall to the summit. 6/10.JAdair9713/08/2022
Good parking for a few cars just before Fruid farm. ATV track all the way up after crossing Fruid Water.jonglew18/06/2022
Fifth of a round from the beeftub - clearing all the tops to the north. Some large bogs just before crown of Scotland. Saw tens of thousands of dead flies covering the ground near Earlshaugh - glad we weren’t there a day earlier! Low cloud rolled over just as we finished.Toby-and-Dion22/08/2021
A day of frost and sunshine before Storm Chiara arrives. Parked near the entrance to the Annandale Way from the A701 and followed the ridge over Great Hill, Chalk Rig Edge, Whitehope Heights and Whitehope Knowe before striking off in an anticlockwise loop over Whaup Knowe, Ballaman Hill, Barncorse Knowe and Crown of Scotland, rejoining the ridge towards the east end of Chalk Rig Edge. The cairn on Whitehope Heights is surrounded by a ring of carefully placed tiny satellite cairns, an arrangement I can't recall seeing on any other summit.Nick Down107/02/2020
From the South end of the Fruid in lashing rain and strong wind. Not a lot to see. On to The Bank before returning to the car.agentmancuso25/02/2017
