Title: Donard Up'n'Down Sat 11th 7pm
Post by: Typo-On on August 10, 2012

Finally did enough DIY to allow me to not feel guilty about getting out  :-X But only enough for a quick evening hike to abuse my knee a bit before my physio appointment. I've not been on Donard since a snowy winter night hike with Readleader so its due a blast.

So... Donard via the Glen river. Planning to be walking for about 7pm all welcome (Im happy to walk back alone if you fancy camping)

Ahh man what a night for a wee summit camp. I'm sure the stars would look class from somewhere like Doan !

I am heading up tomorrow morning early and have a good vantage point to watch the airshow which is supposed to be taking place in Newcastle.

traffic should have cleared a lot by 7pm (hopefully), very tempted to join you but i'm shattered after 2 nights of scout camp, the little angels don't let you have a lie on  ;D  and i was up very late watching the stars, saw the milky way and about 5 meteors
