G\/DC-008, Hensbarrow Downs \u2013 365m, 1 point<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

From St Austel head North on the road to Roche.\u00a0 There is a small parking area at SW 992 575 with room for four or five cars if parked carefully.\u00a0 The path from here up to the trig point is fairly overgrown but passable.\u00a0 From the trig point up onto the access road though was very difficult this year as it is badly overgrown.\u00a0 Just battle your way through the gorse and brambles and don\u2019t wear shorts as I did! Once onto the access road it\u2019s easy to reach the summit plateau where you will have to take a guess which is the highest point as it\u2019s pretty flat.\u00a0 I was out by about 90m this time but the whole area is within the AZ so it isn\u2019t a problem.\u00a0 I set up the station using the Long Ranger again due to the problems previously with the beam.<\/p>\n

It took a bit of work to put four contacts in the log but eventually I did it before packing up and setting off back to the car.\u00a0 The return is much the same as the ascent.<\/p>\n
