The ground here is extremely boggy and more than slightly soft underfoot but this doesn't seem to be any hindrance to the stability of the pylons.

Start of the track into Glen Gyle

The track marked on the map is shown starting in about this position. However, some traffic has occurred further up northwest although this is mainly flattened vegetation on the bog from occasional traffic rather than a constructed track. Despite the presence of the mapped track the ground remains more liquid than solid in many places.
