Craigowl lit up behind Dundee.
The "Ski jump" road up Craigowl. The summit and some masts. View of Dundee. The northward view of Strathmore. Spiky with arials and masts, communications, air traffic control, Craigowl Hill is easily identified from a long way off, as well as from nearby Dundee.
There is a road up, always locked, but still a challenge for cyclists who use it to try and set speed records.. it is straight and steep. Watch out for the cattle.
The summit has avoided the enclosures, and is situated between two mast complexes. It appears to be some sort of tumulus and sports a freshly painted trig pillar. As expected from the Sidlaw's high point the view is good, right down the lums of Dundee.
