by paulocon  21 Jul 2009 Ott was only a short and easy walk from Carn Mountain. Having seen sun and rain earlier in the day, we were briefly pelted with hailstones on the walk to the summit. A small cairn adorns the summit which provides yet another great viewing point for Spelga Dam. From the summit, we made our way down to the track and it was only a short walk across to a jammed Ott car-park. As stated elsewhere, Ott would be the perfect warm-up for an assault on some of the higher Mournes - easily accessible from Ott Car-park and then very convenient to the wall at Carn.
