Paul Caban: What's all the fuss about? As orienteers know, minimising climb is not always the answer. From the south: plenty of room to park, take one zigzag then navigate due north through 'white' forest, with the 'green' acting as a feature to guide you in to the summit. Radio reception for those so minded, and no crawling through the grot.
Edmund and Eileen Leonard: We have now climbed 555 relative hills, disregarding those before 1988 when we did not keep a record. Had a good summer, visiting Aberdeenshire, which we would not have done except for Marilyns. Hill of the Wangie trig point proved difficult to find. Spent three-quarters of an hour in aimless searching, but it is in fact to the west of the highest point, and is easily visible in a forest ride.
Helen McLaren: I didn't pick up a single pine needle using this route in 2002, though of course felling may have changed things in the meantime. Start at NJ118546 and follow the track to 138535, where it ends on the map but on the ground continues straight on. At this point follow a ride heading into the trees till you come to a wide ride, beyond which is a marked vegetation change from open to impenetrable. Turn left along this ride then first right (or maybe second right) where you will find the trig point standing in the ride; no sprucing necessary. I guess folk having epics approached from the track to the north.
Alan Dawson: I managed to screw it up from the west but I'm still not sure how. No problem finding a way through the trees to the summit area, just a puzzling absence of trig point on top, which an hour's heather-thrashing failed to rectify.
