An unexpected treat.

by Harry Goodman 27 May 2012 I climbed this hill as the third top in a round of the Castegal Range on 5 May 2012. (For earlier part of route see my comments on Keelogyboy SW Top.) From the coll above and S of Stramore Lough we followed a gravel track going up S and then E on to the shoulder of the hill before soon leaving it and to go NNE to the top, crossing on the way an unexpected expansive limestone pavement, very reminscent of the Burren. The unmarked top lay along the grassy N edge of the plateau with fine views across the wide valley to Cope's Mt. and Crockauns and beyond to the higher Dartry mountains above Glencar. Continuing E along the edge we picked up the line of an old tumbledown stone wall which we followed down to a corner junction. Crossing over the wall we then went down NE, keeping clear of a band of cliffs to our left. On the way down we met a gravel track which, while intermittent, we were able to follow down to the col G782396 (Point F) with Hangman's Hill. Should we have wished we could have headed NW down to and across the valley floor back to the start of our walk at G7626940300 (Point G) but we opted to continue on to our fourth top for the day Hangman's Hill.

Point F: G782 396

Point G: G76269 40300
