Yes tor trig pillar sits at an elevation of 2,019 ft above sea level and ranks 1st in Dartmoor and Devon highest trigs. It sits on the extensive rocky outcrop of Yes tor and is located within the Okehampton military firing range so if this trig is to be visited then range firing times will have to be inspected. This can be done on the following website

The views from this location are fantastic and well worth the climb. A short distance to the South is Devon's highest hill (Officially a Mountain) - High Willhays sitting at 2,037 ft. (Yes Tor is also officially a Mountain)
