Islands of Adventure 2
After reading Wicklore's rousing prose, who wouldn't wish to hop in a boat to explore the delightful gems that lie off Kerry's coast?!!! I'm glad to see that several people have expressed an interest in participating, as this is really only 'doable' with sufficient numbers to keep the cost reasonable. Connor, that's great news about the boat. I guess the most sensible way of proceeding now is for those of us who want to make the trip to liaise by PM to stop the Motley Views board from being clogged with our planning. We will need to decide on a date during July, August or September that suits the majority. I'll send round a message shortly to would be participants and perhaps you and I, Connor, as our man on the spot so to speak, can have a discussion about arrangements/operators/accommodation/attractive alternative routes in case we need plan B etc.? Let's make this happen folks, as last year was such a superb day out! |

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... |
