Can
Context of comment:Trying to look up walk no. 54, Galtymore circuit, but just won't seem to work. Connection fine, can access rest of site grand. Has it been removed or something?

Edit - subsequently managed to access it, could have been some ghost in the machine for a short while I guess!

Dessie - Wicklow/Dublin mountain routes
Context of comment:Dessie , if you select the Dublin/Wicklow mountains area from the drop down window titled"Choose an Area" or click on the area in the map of Ireland to the left side of your browser window, then select "walks" and then "find a walk" you will get a list of the walk descriptions users have entered for the DublinWicklow area and other walks nearby. You may find this useful.
Any problems feel free to post further questions in the General forum

Re Carrigshouk
Context of comment:Hi Dessie1 - Carrishouk isn't listed because it doesn't have enough prominence. Carrigshouk would seem to have a prominence of 26m, but the definition of an Arderin is an Irish summit of 500m or higher with 30m of prominence. So, unfortunately, like a lot of other worthy summits, it misses out. If it had been a mere 29m higher at 600m it would qualify as a Vandeleur-Lynam, because there the prominence requirement is only 15m.

Re: Carnanmore
Context of comment:NICKY Carnanmore at 379m doesn't actually qualify for inclusion using MV's prominence rules. Any hill under 400m must have a prominence of 150m to be included as a separate top. However it is possible to walk from Carnanmore to Crockaneel without ever having to go below 250m - therefore Carnanmore is not classed as a separate top. Hope that clears it up.

Points for multiple/repeat climbs
Context of comment:I totally agree with Conor74 in that there should be some sort of points scheme for repeat climbs as I have climbed Great Sugarloaf about 5 times and lug a couple of times.

Carnanmore - Antrim Hills
Context of comment:I dont know if this is in the correct place but I was wondering why Carnanmore isnt included in the mv list? The view is exceptional!!. I was up there at 8 oclock on saturday morning and you could see scotland in the greatest detail. The paps of Jura, Goat fell etc. I know it meets the prominence guidelines.

New feature: Titles for Mountain Comments.
Context of comment:There are now quite a few mountain comments for each summit. Up to now we have relied on the rating system to bring interesting comments to the fore, however it is also desirable to further categorise them to make it easier for users to find what they want, starting with titling.
Message:It is now possible to enter a title for each mountain comment. This allows you to introduce your readers to what is in your comment, be it description of some aspect of the place, trip report or news etc.
