Geo on Cornasaus, 2008
by Geo  6 Sep 2008
Nice little Sunday stroll. Just outside Bailieboro, with a telecommunications mast on the top. I havent been on it in ages maybe 10 years but it had a gentle stroll up a forestry road to get to the top. Used to be a time when people collected "bilberries" here, at least according to my parents stories! Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/913/comment/3290/
