simon3: Track 2008 in area near Meenteog, Glenbeigh Horseshoe (Ireland)
Half the Glenbeigh Horseshoe with a knife edge arete.
Length: 12.4km, Creator time taken: 4h45m, Ascent: 741m, Descent: 794m
Places:Start at V6363485145, Meenteog, Coomacarrea, Keamconneragh, end at Start Logged as completed by 1
'"'Start from the road and ascend Meenteog as shown. The ridge extending N of Meenteog that you encounter first is known as Knocknaman. On the way up Coomacarrea there is an odd sight at one point at around 680m. It is possible to see the very small Loughacummeen at around 510m apparently right beside the much larger Coomasaharn Lake at 161m. This particular track didnt go to Teeromoyle Mountain however with a little trick navigation it is easy to do so. Keamconneragh or Teeromoyle Tooth is the name of a bump at around 608m in a knife edge arete. In high winds this is visibly dangerous and inexperienced members of a party may find this ridge which is short, grassy and frequently wet very daunting. Beyond this ridge is Coomreagh and a reasonably easy descent to the start.

NOTE: ALL information such as Ascent, Length and Creator time taken etc should be regarded as approximate. The creator's comments are opinions and may not be accurate or still correct.
Your time to complete will depend on your speed plus break time and your mode of transport. For walkers: Naismith's rule, an approximate though often inaccurate estimate, suggests a time of 3h 43m + time stopped for breaks
NOTE: It is up to you to ensure that your route is appropriate for you and your party to follow bearing in mind all factors such as safety, weather conditions, experience and access permission.
