This One Mans Pass sounds great, its in Donegal, think I might head there at the weekend (by myself I predict!) unless anyone else fancies it...

It does, 1 foot across at its minimum - great Atlantic views too.

I'll try to get some more details about it and do a proper post - and I'll maybe put if off for a few weeks, maybe we can organise a few more peeps to go.

If you still fancy doing this I am up in Donegal from 4th july for 3 weeks also hoping to do Muckish and have a looksee at the Poison Glen , hoping to get my bivvy bag out for a wee summit camp too :)
Everywhere is within walking distance if you have the time.

Yes, I think I could make it the weekend of the 3rd, hopefully we can get some other punters on board too.  I can fit a few in my car, I'll need to put a proper post up, will do that soon.....

We could also maybe take in Tory Island - and have a few drinks - with the famously hospitable residents (apparently)...

Maybe, head down first thing Saturday 3rd, spend the day and night on around One Mans Pass, then head on to Tory Island or something.....

Tory island I will give a miss been there before and got sea sick going and coming back rained whole time was there and to be honest there is nowt to do but walk from one end to the other and meet the king , ruined the magical feel everytime I seen island :( but could be better with no kids a wife and just sitting in pub watching the dolphins

Hi everyone, we're thinking of going on Friday 13th August, leaving after work (hopefully a bit early) and getting down to Donegal for a wee camp, then into the hills on Saturday, then returning on Sunday.

Its a BIG open invite for everyone who would like to join us to come along, the scenery is spectacular (apparently !!)  and the craic should be good too.

I'll have 4 places in my car, be a bit of a squeeze with the bags, but I can give whoever a lift.

Hopefully, J will post this as a date on the calendar thing !!

So, get your cooking devices prepared and ready for some One Mans Pass Action !!!!
