Overnighter tomorrow night(17th) - Shelter Stone
« on: December 16, 2011 »
I'm going for a wee overnighter tomorrow night if anyone fancies it. I'm thinking either Bearnagh, commedagh,donard or the shelter stone. If you fancy it and have a suggestion I'm all ears as you can see ive no idea lol

I've been given the nod if I want to head into the hills this weekend so, other things permitting I might be able to take you up on this offer.

Mourneman, here's some photos of the area right at the northern tip of Ben Crom reservoir:-

Hope that defines things for you.

Any suggested timings for Saturday?  I've a couple of things to attend to but hopefully should be cleared up by lunchtime (2pm?).

Alrite lads, im meant to be having a few beers in town tomorrow nite, but ive heard a rumour that this might be posponed.

If thats the case, then il join you if you dont mind, the shelter stone would be a good spot and ive a new tent to break in.

No drinking now! That would just be wrong ;)

A family birthday. The only way out would be to leave the country on my return.

I take it that the RV point will be Meelmore Lodge?

Would 4pm be okay?
