Bad craic... and as usual, left there. If you're so tough, carry the darn rubbish back down with you.

Someone showed me a pic of the keg last week, apparently it was brought up for a charity event.

Not being cheeky, but what charity event requires a keg of beer?

they could have at least rolled it down, actually that might not be such a good idea  :o  at least i'll have something to sit on up there  ;D

I can understand carrying it up, just think its a bit rude not bringing it down.

The beer keg icon makes me think this is some symbolic Alcoholics Anonymous event, where they beat the addiction by "conquering" the mountain with it.

That wasn't there last week-end when I was there.  I did see a big plastic flask just left lying.

Hate Yobs in the outdoors. It's usually so nice that people say hello and generally are pleasant in the Hills. The outdoors isn't the place to get cheeky to people.... there's usually no witnesses about and people do slip occasionally  ::)

I was told it was full.. So the plus side is having a party on Donard then rolling the empty keg back down..
