The rest of my bagging day in the Sheep's Head peninsula (six peaks) were sunshine or cloud. This was done in a hailstorm in March. Thankfully when that stopped there was great views over Bantry. Park at car Park over Bantry 002 469 starA and follow the Sheeps head way and veer off near the summit. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1166/comment/20921/
