I'd love to, but with being out last weekend and with the GB/Youth Club runs to do there is no chance.  Looks like a top spot, enjoy.

What time are you folks intending to meet at?
Im hoping to get to the campsite by 8pm, before it gets too dark.

We'll be leaving Belfast at 630ish with the traditional Mickey Ds on the way so it might be 745pm or so before we're kicking off from Meelmore Lodge. Sunset is 18:44 and there wont be much of a moon so it's going to be a dark one! It's to be windy with showers later to add to the misery :D

Can't make this one I'm afraid as I have other commitments tonight, but hope you have a good time!  I really like the Cascade River spot, excellent place to pitch a tent.  At least you'll have no midges this time :)

Another fine night away. This spot is brilliant, not too hard to get to with lots of flat ground by the river. Only problem was it was pretty wet underfoot getting there and we had to take a small detour through a farmers field. We had a very pleasant few beerios round the firelog and a nice walk home over (or round) Lukes Mountain.

Good one guys.  You got a cracker of a day on Saturday, must have been tempting to spend a bit longer up the hills.

Hmm there was a bit of temptation there but after a 10.5 mile walk during the Friday day, the walk to camp and back out again I was feeling the burn.
