Easy Bag
by Aidy  9 Apr 2016
After making it down through the boulders on Slieve Snaght's western side, it was a short easy walk up to the cairn marking the top of this summit. An easy bag on the way to Crockfadda itself, and good views back to Slieve Snaght and beyond to Errigal. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/449/comment/18487/
