Thank you everyone for the most welcoming reception. Hope to meet some of you all on the mountains soon - 22nd October maybe?

Will have to see how my daughter, now affectionately know for handiness as 1/2 pint :) goes with the trek in. She doing well with the hiking of her own accord so will follow the natural progression and be patient. Failing that its a lift to Carrick Little!

Not a great place to have to be the one carrying.... I think the winter one, certainly the first night out will be less 1/2 pint, after a hike in the snow we will se if she still fancies it but the Annalong wood or Trassey track would be better snow camping if kids go or better still Lough Shannagh?

Shannagh was always the place for us on new years day traditionally.
