Climbed 22/02/04 - start woodland track 819 185 starL to track straight up side of hill at 833 202 starM - sharp turn left on track towards Temple Hill - the track goes further than shown on the map,when you run out of track a bearing of due north (useful in fog) will get you to the summit after approx 500 mtrs across a field of small rounded rocks - return by same route - 4 hrs & 12.5 kms
The photo was taken from the cairn on top of Temple hill (good shelter) with Galtys from Lyracappul on the left to Greenane on the right Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/54/comment/1056/
