Another One Bites The Dust
by sandman  8 Aug 2011 The 2nd summit of the day not visited by Mountain Views - Started at G44917 22329 (Point A) (Sligo Way) beside Easkey Lough - Walk along shore line till you reach the point that the Sligo Way turns left at G43754 22281 (Point B) - head straight up to G42854 22584 (Point C) (328 on map) or continue to old building for easier access to ridge - From pt 328 head directly to summit at G42629 21944 (Point D) - Placed the first stone as summit marker - Fantastic views over bay to Donegal coast.
Point A: G44917 22329 Point B: G43754 22281 Point C: G42854 22584
Point D: G42629 21944 (turn area map On)

Move along folks, there's nothing to see here.
by madfrankie  6 Oct 2011 When you do a walk in a grey mire, there's very little to report in terms of describing the views or relevant features of the locale. I did something similar to Sandman, starting at the car park NE of Lough Easky, and headed anti-clockwise around the lake.
The summit is fairly featureless, except for Sandman's stone, though I did glimpse the terrain to the west - a forbidding tract of moorland and forestry. Probably best not to come up that way! Descended easliy NE to the edge of Lough Easky (aesthetically the most pleasing part of the walk) to pick up the track that leads east to the tarred road.
