A good single monolith in a well-cleared and idyllic area of the Galloway forest. Good lines (despite crouching starts) but very coarse rock. Do not go anywhere near it unless there's a breeze or cloud cover, it's the hottest suntrap in Scotland.

Very quick drying.
Took a bit a jungle bashing to get through and find, grid ref NX 487 571. Uneven underfoot to say the least. Area around the boulder is still clear. AndyDWilson - 24/Mar/22 |

Unfortunately the forest is now returning and it's really difficult to push through the new growth and actually get to the boulder. Would not recommend unless you bring a chainsaw Stingraypoindex - 30/Jul/20 |
