The one where I just had to get out onto the mountains...
The weather forecast was for cloud with mist and rain with the possibility of a break in the weather mid-afternoon. For the first 3 hrs or so, I was navigating with map and compass through rain, mist and cloud...then, just south of Crohane SW top, the cloud lifted and I got this wonderful view of Bennaunmore across the gap!

As others have reported, the terrain around here is very tough, at one stage I was pushing my way through bracken that was taller than me; another stretch has waist high grass! Still, a good day out.

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 4h 45m + 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.
