Looks like a fair bit of regrowth around, is there much open/glassing country?
Will try head in for a look in the near future when I suss out access.

Thanks in advance

Yeah I went in there a few months ago, was about 7k road walk from memory from the old mill.
Grab a permit online, the huts very nice, been done up buy bct. tracks really overgrown and hard to follow.
Bugger all glassing, lots of animals in there, a mate shot some massive stags in the roar.
