Route to the trig point through much peat erosion and the highlight of a non-runner, 92497 miles only, good restoration project, see photograph.

Visited on a long through walk down the east side of Yell, which also included Hill of Lussetter and Heights of Ramnageo trig pillars. I agree, it is very peaty.

Quick detour on way back to ferry. Took track from HU5276086552, a gentle walk to the pillar.

Trig surrounded by miles and miles of peat, but view from here has a bleak beauty about it. Surprised not to see more logs of this. Maybe the endless peat puts people off? Certainly worth a visit I say!

Easiest approach from Aywick. Better to combine with a visit to the White Wife figurehead (from the wreck of the Bohus) and a walk around Ness of Queyon.
