I've been looking for some closer hills to fill in the time between Munros and keep the fitness in check. After Beinn Luibhean I'd given myself a nasty ankle twist which was runnable on, but I took a week off to let it rest. Last weekend I was in the Kilpatricks and it was mostly recovered, so I figured I'd head out further afield this weekend. I left Glasgow in bright sun just after 0900, got some diesel for the van, and headed south on the M74 for Moffat. It was a short drive from Moffat to the car park at Blackshope. I got ready and headed out from the van into more sunshine with a brutally cold wind at 1039. I got about 200m up the road before I remembered that I'd left my gloves in the van so had to head back and get them. The first part is up the side of a lovely big gully carved into the side of the hill, and it has a burn and a few waterfalls. Very steep but I made good progress quite quickly. Hang Gill Waterfall From the waterfall, I just followed a path up ...
