Connor, I'm one of the three who's logged an ascent of this top...it's splendid wild country, but a bit 'Bluestacks Lite' and there's no way it's one of Ireland's top 100...strewth, it's not even one of the top 100 that I've personally climbed. That said, I think the ratings for challenge, view, wilderness etc. aren't a million miles wide of the mark.

(I'm waiting for Simon to embarrass me by saying that I did actually nominate it as one of Ireland's top 100 when I originally rated it...I genuinely can't remember).

Coolcurtoga: Don't be put off, it's not that bad
thomas_g 2 weeks ago.
Climbed this today, it looks awful from the road, but once you're on the slope it's not that bad. There is the odd ankle twisting hole, but it's fairly easy to navigate the shelves to the top. Abo...
