Owenglin 12 Bens: The Movie
I had word that mcrtchly and kernowclimber might venture into the Bens last weekend. My fervent hope was that they would not only complete the difficult Owenglin Circuit but would video their efforts so that we would have a further top class mountain video. I assumed the final product would take weeks to edit and organise - but here we are 48 hours later with a highly professional piece that superbly captures the look and feel of the white quartzite peaks. I want to do the video justice by writing a more detailed analysis but in the mean time please copy and paste the link and watch this wonderful work! The light is dazzling, the skies are blue and we have a few new types of shots that give the hillwalker a real taste of the challenge. Congratulations on another top class video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sRVv0pmIvY |

There is fairly good access from the main Barraboy ridge via a grassy gully which was a bit damp at the bottom. It's possible to traverse east to this top from the Beara way, but it looks like hor... |
