I always spend at least one day on the mountain at the double left called the 32nd/stone breakers (moderns name Dukes). Last year found a great way of getting there. From Douglas you  turn right at the Creg  then turn 2nd left and follow the road down and up a steep valley untill you come to a mountain trail. The trail is pretty steep and the walk quiet a trek but it is worth it because it gives you access to the 32nd via windy corner.





The view from the 32nd looking toward Brndywell.





The view Windy direction, with Keppel Gate in the distance.



Great spot. Once saw Hailwood there on a RG500 i
