fergal meath on Slieve Binnian North Top, 2009
by fergal meath  25 May 2009
Had a sun baked few hours in the Mournes today. Started at the Carrick Little car park and continued along the path to the two gates, up over the stile and continued along the path by the Annalong forest and up to the saddle between Binnian North top and Lamagan. Views from here are amazing. From here went up to North Tors and on to Binnian proper, more stunning views and back down by the wall (about 4 hours excluding stops). Picture shows the ascent from the saddle to the Binnian North Tors and Buzzards Roost to the left. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/145/comment/3782/
