This is a really nice short walk.
A small change in stage 2: you now don't need to reach the house at Carphin farm and make a sharp turn around the farm buildings. There is now a signposted shortcut to the right, before you even reach the farm.
Follow this shortcut and then when you reach the track that previously went around the farm, just cross straight and follow the trail (all nicely signposted).
It was a bit windy and grey, but the view were amazing. Summit with Lomond hills:
More Lomond hills:
Here we are, summit with cairn, trig point and view indicator and yes, Lomond hills:
A bit of hazy sun on the way down:
