Ascent Trip Report

Parked just past Craigencallie House in the car park at the end of the road. Walked back along the road to the power lines. From here it was possible to follow a ride steeply uphill to the open hillside. Took in the Dragonfly memorial and Darnaw before reaching our goal. Excellent weather with good views of Clatteringshaws Loch. Dropped down to the west until the power lines were reached. These were followed with great difficulty back to the road and hence the car.
