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!
