Comments
Comments: Missed the third cairn as well, so took a bearing from height of land and whacked to East summit, picking up the established herd path not far from it. After returning to East, followed the established path until losing it after a section of blowdowns, then followed bearing back to logging road. Within 50 yards we discovered the third cairn, hidden by a clump of ferns, which we removed.
