I once tried in vain to find the true summit of Dead Man's Hill, not easy. Saw absolutely no-one at all on the way there, right up until I got to the banks of the reservoir, where there were quite a few walkers. On the way back, a few off-road motorcyclists, a few walkers and a couple of cyclists who I saw at Scar House and again going up a very steep bit in Walden - they commented that they'd had to go the long way round where I'd gone over the top.
