Yet another change of plan this week I'm afraid but perhaps not unexpected given the disruption we have experienced to date.

What I'd like to do tomorrow is what I had hoped to do last week i.e Lug twice. The route starts out from Barravore, up Fraughan Rock to Lug, over to Slievemaan and Ballineddan, down to the Little Slaney, up Camara Hill to Lug and from there, over to Clohernagh, down to Art's Lough and back to Ballinafunshogue Car Park where we will have left a car or two on our way to Barravore.


I think the weather conditions, while challenging, will be within our capacity to cope with. However, I want to retain some flexibility at the beginning so I am proposing that we meet up at Lynams at 7:30 tomorrow morning for a final decision, having regard to the current and forecast weather and road conditions: we will want to be able to get home afterwards! If we go into Glenmalure, we are committed (maybe should be
committed!) and once we reach Lug, if we go on towards Seskin, there is no opt out - it will be a case of coming back up over Lug to get back to the cars.
