Hey

This sounds good. Dates dependent here.

If I could get fit enough and the dates suited I'd be interested too.

Enough of all this "fit" talk! This is gonna be easy and well spend more time in cars than on foot. Carrauntoohil is pretty easy apart from the long walk in and we've all been up Donard! Haven't been up the other two but we all need a bit of mystery in our lives.

Come on where's your sense of adventure!

I know this is a really old post but the other half has a bee in his bonnet about doing the horseshoe sometime and would appreciate any info/advice on Carrauntoohill and its 2 neighbours.

How does it rate in comparison to say Donard - I know it's higher but in terms of steepness? Is there camping near the car park? Is there much water about?
