Logging road, Waterside Thinning in progress in the woodlands south of the Jed Water. All through the struggle along the riverbank I could hear machinery at work somewhere in the forest and was worried about getting out along this road.  After a delay for a puncture repair I was able to get through with the work taking place in the trees to the left.

The road was rather muddy.

Path on Shaw Craigs The sheep are gone but the fort and its views must still attract a few walkers. There is a good path along the ridge.
