2nd Trig of the day, 1st being Blackstone Edge. It was a beautiful evening and the views from the pillar on the summit of Dog Hill were majestic. As stated previously, there is some damage but at least it's still standing. From here I made my way down to the Green Withens Reservoir and back to where I had parked near the Rockingstone compound.

It was one of the coldest winters in recent years and we nearly died walking to this one. This log was written on 4 July 2014.

1 hour walk from Oxygrains Bridge, via Green Withens Reservoir and water board drain, on last day of BST. Very windy, showery and atmospheric. Great views in all directions. Met one runner coming up from Rishworth.

My first trig for months ! Sprained ankle,work, & life got in the way ! Excorcised one of many ghosts here. Bit of a murky day but fair views. I like this trig its lonely,has extensive views, is off the beaten track whilst still accessible without too much trouble.

Wonderfull views all around. Sky Larks, Twites and Curlews could be seen and heard in the area. On the road up from Ripponden there is a trig looking stucture just off the road but I Couldn't find the flash plate. If there is one.

I have never seen so much dog muck as on the walk around and past the reservoir, also the area torn up by MTBs. Good views from the trig though

A slog in the snow from Blackstone Edge and around the reservoir. Every hidden bog a hazard under the drifts. A nicely turned out trig with no plug

Dog Hill on Rishworth Moor. Splendidly isolated, no RoW paths to the trig but tracks are there from most directions although they might be a little moist. Loses a point because of the noise from the M62. Done on a nice lengthy hike from Walsden to Mythholmroyd. Update from 30/07/2006, it's now on access land - todays route was Marsden to Toddy, similar to ted I was intrigued by the numerous psuedo trigs (see teds photo) here to the SE around Booth Wood Reservoir but - all in close proximity - I'm guessing they're something to do with the Water Board - there's obviously some form of tool/instrument that will sit in the top. No cars, on foot.

Known as 'Dog Hill' according to the OS 1:25000. Trig in good condition; top open. Views of the M62 ascending towards Windy Hill.

not a trig Several of these around Baitings Reservoir, a mile to the north of this trig; significance unclear to me.
trig surrounded by cotton grass.
trig Stoodley Pike on the horizon, directly above the pillar.

Bashed off in 25 mins from Tuck shop quarry/layby on A672. It sits there in splendid isolation, well cared for etc. GPSr gave elavation as 1443ft. Views good all around ... could see Blackstone Edge, Manshead and White Hill trigs from here today (with binoculars) Didn't see another person all the way there or back
