Looks awesome. Seem like you managed to get a decent break in the weather. How are you finding the Laser Comp?

In the picture below you can see the track I followed down from Slievenaglogh(its the upper one)

Trassey from side of Spellack

Looking at that reminds me of a trip report by Red Leader where on a particularly muggy night where that path wasn't obvious and (if I recall correctly) he met the mighty obstacle that is the rock face on the side of Slievenaglogh whilst trying to reach Hare's Gap.

Good the see the pics Flipmeb.  I remember thinking that the second day you got was a cracker.  I thought for sure you'd have stayed a bit longer in the mountains.

Yep, drifted to the left on the way up the Hares Gap boulder field and met the slabs on the side of Slievenaglogh. Amusingly, I've also managed to wander off the upper path you can see in this pic and ended up basically coming straight down the side of Slievenaglogh (in daylight on a nice day!).

Nice one Dave. Steak and Mojito :)

I can't believe that Spellack cache is only a 3 terrain, there's a fair bit of hands and knees climbing to get up to it.

Bit of useless information: that track you took down from Slievenaglogh, I've heard two separate people call it the Green Line, no idea why.
