peaking atop the Glendine Pass
by lightoffoot  4 Jun 2012 Completed Arderin after doing Moylussa on saturday 2nd June 2012, these two peaks are 15th and 16th on our quest to complete the County tops of ireland. This was a very easy hill to climb. After heading up the Glendine pass and stopping at teh carpark outside of which the county border is well marked. A 10 minute brisk walk led us up to the unusually low trig point. The weather was coming in on us but it was still possible to appreciate the potential views this hill has to offer.
