(Details)     COMMENTS for An Bhinn Láir Page 1 of 1 Picture: Lough Coomeathcun. Expand pics.   by simon3  13 Sep 2006 An Bhinn Láir is a great place to look at the spectacular wild north side of Coomcallee. This view of the wind-ruffled Lough Coomeathcun with the glints of sun on it was one of the chief delights of a visit to An Bhinn Láir. So strong was the wind on it that we could barely stand. Go and enjoy. (Comment Rating 4.00) Your Score: Very useful <<  >>Average Picture: The view west of An Bhinn Láir Expand pics. by simon3  13 Sep 2006 The summit is part of an east west ridge more than 3k long. At the east end is the rough tumult of ground dotted with lakes, ponds, cliffs etc between Coomcathcun and Cnoc Breasil. Walking away from this to the west you find yourself on a grassy ridge. It feels higher and airier than it is because of the lakes on either side (Cloonaghlin Lough to the south and Derriana Lough to the north) The rising ground on the left is part of An Bheann Mhór (The Big Peak) a summit just a little higher than Coomcallee which is better known. Access to An Bhinn Láir is no doubt possible from the roads to either of the loughs beneath it, however I got to it via some rough ground from Coomcathcun. Most probably also you could construct some interesting walks around the loughs, using An Bhinn Láir to gain height. From most ways up you this summit will be able to savour the walk its long grassy ridge for its views and unusual lake surrounds.

Expand pics.   by simon3  12 Sep 2006 This photo was taken on the summit of Coomavaniha, 2.5km to the NE, showing the steep cliffs on the whole of the northern side of the mountain. The mountain's long western spur (with two bumps at the right of the picture) divides Derriana Lough (North and right) from Cloonaghlin Lough behind the ridge, though neither lough is visible in the picture. The twin peaks central on the horizon are on Bolus head.

We were sheltered for 2 nights from prevailing N/NE winds that left the east of Ireland in cold and snow. Sunset and sunrise photo opportunities were magnificent. Snowy/misty conditions encountered on Tues 3rd Feb. Two more 500m+ "summits" in the bag, at least a start for 2009!
