MOURNE MOUNTAINS - BEN CROM - & RESEVOIR

 MOURNE MOUNTAINS - BEN CROM


Ok get the boots on again and let’s keep exploring the ground from Carrick little car park into the great kingdom of Mourne. Now keep in mind the last 4 latest mountain videos is giving you a great understanding of the ground in this area up past Annalong wood and in around the valley and surrounding mountains this gives a beginning a great start and look at the area before even setting foot on it.. So this episode I have a guy with me this isn’t really his normal thing and had no experience in this kind of stuff but he is up anyway. We head up to a small saddle between Slievelamagan and the route up to Slieve Binnian were we get a nice eyes on the beautiful Ben Crom reservoir. Now keep in mind were you have been with me on the last videos ..you are now on the opposite side of Slievelamagan and opening up the scope. So wee head down to the reservoir and move up to the camp at the very end of it. The ground here is a perfect pitch .. and you always sure to get a pitch plenty of room. We got set up then pushed a little deeper and headed to the good old slieve Bearnagh this can be a hard old climb but well worth it on a good day...tho you won’t see much in this video. When we descend Bearneagh we head down into Hares Gap then across some open ground to get into a beautiful big crack in the ground and follow the river back down to the camp. It was a beautiful walk down her. When we get back we get a quick bite to eat then it was time for some cold water fun. So remember in these series of videos I’m bringing you from Carrick little carpark all the time and I’m expanding the area so you build a picture and get familiar with the area ... I think personally it is a great eyes on and could help a beginner starting out here. Anyway I hope you enjoy the videos and have a great Sunday.....
