Lost in the peat hag maze !!

The summit plateau is a real peat hag maze, but thankfully the weather was dry !! I would recommend using the descending route for ascending as well, staying away from the N cliffs; better terrain and better views over the Ocean and Lough Aghree. Care required on the steeper part of the descent, especially under wet conditions.
