MountainViews.ie Picture about mountain Devilsmother North Top in area Partry/Joyce Country, Ireland
Picture: The grassy mound that marks the top.		  
Simple top on the way to main summit.
Short Summary created by Colin Murphy,  31 May 2016
The most direct approach is to park at small lay-by (1 car) at L912 650 A E and proceed directly up steep slope in SE direction. Terrain is short grass mostly, and was solid underfoot in late May. Reach the ridge at L917 640 B F after 1 hour 20 minutes and then follow the ridge to the south for 800m to attain the grassy mound at the summit, which is unmarked.
