One to bag
by YoungJohn  1 Apr 2011
Took the n81 out of Dublin until Brittas where we turned off left and after a car dismantlers veered right before coming to a T junction where we could see the Armay camp. Then along with two friends I climbed Corrig via Seahan while doing the 'Kilbride' circuit. We were lucky that the low lying cloud passed and a clear view of Corrig, Seefingan and Seefin miraculously appeared. We were also lucky in that the mountains were 'dry' under foot. Corrig is marked by a pole which was denuded of its sign. Wicklore covers most of my intended comment so .... Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/247/comment/6292/
