Scavvy Nine
'Scavvy' aka 'Scavenger' Walks must surely offer a clue. First to go is a day or so then maybe your perception of potential. I've known a man or three to weep at the strange loss of his complete flexibility while at the same time thank the great ground the Cra and the jackill walk upon, (covered with them... literally) . Including the Devil's Coachroad may also offer hints, enchantment perhaps. But there you have it, herself choked up at the souls they take with them to deliver to the mountain gods and all you hear is thank you, thank you, thank you.
Congrats on success of Number Nine you relentless, de-liberating pair from Scotchie and whats left of herself, and for those who posted pics and bits on mountainviews thank you, and Brilliant muzag, as in Brilliant, muzag. Please note all nine scavvies returned fit and vital parties, tho very badly entranced and the better for it. Fair trade. |

Brougher Mountain: A quick bag. |

Nothing much to add to the comments already. Drove most of the way up from the North side of the hill to within 450 metres of the trig point. Nothing to recommend to anybody who is looking to get ... |

Slievereagh: To drive or not to drive? |
 TommyV 6 days ago.
Geo's directions are spot on. At the aforementioned Coilte forest entrance there is a sign staing no unauthorized vehicles beyond this point as the gate may close at any point. However as the Lazy... |

Seefin Mountain W Top: Two summits one hike. |

Nothing to add to the directions provided by melohara. Just to mention two things, the parking place was littered with close to a hundred empty beer cans, it looks like there was a party there or ... |

 Collaborative entry Last edit by: Peter Walker a week ago.
Relatively recent history has liberated Camlough Mountain from the bonds of the military: some metallic paraphernalia remains high on its slopes but if one puts that aside it's a cracking little e... |

Carrigshouk: Accessible but not necessarily easy. |
IainT a week ago.
Although Carrigshouk is very close to a road it's quite a rough little walk, with deep heather, boulders, scrub and the remants of old tree planting. The worst of this can be avoided by parking ea... |
