Nothing much to add to the comments already. Drove most of the way up from the North side of the hill to within 450 metres of the trig point. Nothing to recommend to anybody who is looking to get ...

Although Carrigshouk is very close to a road it's quite a rough little walk, with deep heather, boulders, scrub and the remants of old tree planting. The worst of this can be avoided by parking ea...

PMG Walk 65 Devilsmother to Barnahowna. Today saw a change in the weather for the better! For the most part the summits were cloud free and the walking and views were lovely. The underfoot conditions however were very very wet, which in fairness after all the rain that was to be expected.The plateau of Maumtrasna was on one hand boring and on the other quite special. It's size and flatness is something to be seen and to walk from one side to the other took me longer than planned even with the wet underfoot conditions. Nice walk, nice weather and an easy hitch back to the car! The views from Devilsmother are amazing! I was lucky to have them in the process of clearing from cloud which made for some great photos!
