by willfogarty  21 Jul 2011
this is my mountain, i have lived in its shadow most of my life and consider it a friend. i have to agree with jackill, the telephone mast does spoil the view. it is said in local folklore that a king is buried on the pinnicale ( Sliabh Ri ?) there is a visitors book hidden in an tin, you can find it by looking towards the galtees and walking farward, you step down on to a rock ledge and the tin is hidden in a small crevice, my photo was taken on a foggy day but once you got thru the cloud the views were amazing, sometimes when we get hot weather paragliders use the pinnicale as a jump off point, enjoy my mountain. will Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/563/comment/3957/
