A night on the mountain
by mcrtchly  10 Apr 2015
It is rare to get good enough weather to camp out overnight on the mountains of Ireland. Even rarer to get clear skies and a full moon. We were fortunate to get such conditions on Masatiompan at Easter 2015. Our camp, just below the col between Masatiompan and Pierasmore, gave a fantastic view of the sun setting over the Atlantic. At night the full moon illuminated the whole landscape, so much so that it was possible to move around without the need of a torch. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/66/comment/17919/
