This monday - Donard / Commedagh Night Hike

[666_pack]

alright guys,
Me and MG1 were planning to leave Donard wood approx 6pm and head up Slieves Donard & Commadagh this Monday evening.

you wanna come?

[RedLeader]

Assuming the wife allows me then I'm up for it. However I couldn't get out of work before 5pm so I could be at Donard Car Park by probably 6pm and up at the wood by 630.

[666_pack]

no bother.

Hope it stays like this





really looking forward to this now

anyone else interested?

[RedLeader]

So what gear are you bringing if any?

[666_pack]

water
yorkiex2
flask of hot whiskey for the summit
bivvi bag(emergency only)
and the clothes on my back

[RedLeader]

I run quite hot so I'll need a small ruck for waterproofs/fleece. Other than that a few mars bars, a sigg of water and a hat ought to do it.
