Track most of the ways
Summary created by jackill, paddyhillsbagger
18 Jul, 2014
Park at A (R82389 59162) , a forest entrance with room for 5 cars. Follow the forest track taking the first left onto the Slieve Felim way, follow the way, ignoring the many offshoots, to B (R81091 58087) Turn left here and then right at C (R81207 58049) up a narrow track. When this ends cross rough ground to the summit at 423 mtrs.
Using the extensive forest tracks, I had planned to do a 4-carn loop taking in Cullaun and the three Slieve Felims. I started at D (R83875 57275), bagged Cullaun in about 20 minutes and returned to the track at E (R824 572). Here the problems began. What looks on the map like a nice track leading all the way to Slieve Felim East top turned out to be little more that a river of mud for its entire length. It was utterly impassible in places, requiring me to retreat to either the adjacent heathery bog (almost as bad) or to beat my way through the woods. The 3 km walk took me 80 minutes of unpleasantness, the only relief being an occasional frozen section (as in pic). The high point is a clump of slightly elevated heather with an ancient tree branch stuck in it. Definitely a baggers' hill. Linkback: mountainviews.ie/summit/1057/comment/23409/
