PLANE SPOTTING
by sandman  21 May 2012 En route home from the Dunkerron Mts on sunday last, I decided to break the journey and do some walking in W.Limerick / N.Kerry - Mullaghareirk Mts. First up, Mount Eagle and then to Ballinard.
Ballinard not a very exciting hill but a Mountain View summit non the less. Parked at forest enterance R0740711864 (Point A) - walked up forest road to R0785012127 (Point B) to a point where power lines are overhead - turn right at pole and head up hill for approx 30 meters where you will find a slight trace of quad tracks, follow these to fire-break at R0808712017 (Point C), continue around to right following fire-break until you meet a barb wire fence at R0827111829 (Point D) - It is here you will have the best views back to the high mountains of Kerry - also at this point, as you are close to a flight path into Shannon so you can do some plane spotting. Turn left here and you will reach summit at R0835511880 (Point E)
Point A: R07407 11864 Point B: R07850 12127 Point C: R08087 12017
Point D: R08271 11829 Point E: R08355 11880
