  • Connemara Trip May 2018
    Connemara trip May 2018 ‘B’ Group Leader : Andrew McKibbin Followers : Mark McGinley, Bert Rima , Marie Hoeritzauer , Joe Wilson , Noel Rice , Pam Quiery , Dermot MacDermott , Domnall McComish and Ellen Greaney. The ‘B’ Group enjoyed 3 stunning walks over the May bank holiday weekend in Connemara, gallantly led by Andrew Mc Kibbin over forest track, bare crag and tussocky grass with a little bog thrown in, in South Mayo and North west Galway. We basked in glorious sunshine on all days and consequently the vistas were tremendous . To enjoy 1 such day in Connemara is a treat but we were really blessed to have 3 in succession. On Saturday morning we eyed that day’s target , Mweelrea , from the hotel terrace ,at 8.30 its peak was masked by a thin veil of cloud but otherwise there was scarcely another cloud in the sky. Having driven around the north side of Killary, we parked at the newly renovated Delphi Adventure resort. We set off up the forest track, shortly after leaving the trees behind we took to the open hill onto the flank of Mweelrea, the terrain was grassy by times and boggy at others , as we climbed the view over the fiord below opened up to our left and over the broad glaciated valley to our right. After a steep ascent we gained the Southeast spur- Derreennawhinshin, then down to the saddle, there we lunched surrounded by flying insects which we figured were mayfly on their brief flight, could they really have made it up here out of the depths of Lough Lugaloughan 100metres below? Next it was more climbing to the summit of Mweelrea at 814m.

  • List of Irish Mountain Passes
    List of Irish Mountain Passes The following document is a list of mountain passes and similar features extracted from the gazetteer, Irish Landscape Names. Please consult the full document (also available at Mountain Views) for the abbreviations of sources, symbols and conventions adopted. The list was compiled during the month of June 2020 and comprises more than eighty Irish passes and cols, including both vehicular passes and pedestrian saddles. There were thousands of features that could have been included, but since I intended this as part of a gazetteer of place-names in the Irish mountain landscape, I had to be selective and decided to focus on those which have names and are of importance to walkers, either as a starting point for a route or as a way of accessing summits. Some heights are approximate due to the lack of a spot height on maps. Certain features have not been categorised as passes, such as Barnesmore Gap, Doo Lough Pass and Ballaghaneary because they did not fulfil geographical criteria for various reasons which are explained under the entry for the individual feature. They have, however, been included in the list as important features in the mountain landscape.

    MOURNE MISCELLANY Celebrating 50 years of walking in the Mournes MOURNE RAMBLING GROUP 196950 2019 Years 1 MOURNE RAMBLING GROUP 196950 2019 Years The Council would like to congratulate the Mourne Rambling Group on the occasion of their fiftieth anniversary and wishes the club continued success in the future Editorial and Acknowledgements. The Editorial Committee has taken great pleasure working together on this special publication to mark the MRG’s 50th Anniversary. Our aim has been to ensure that the legacy of the past is documented, in both words and pictures, as a reminder of the work undertaken over the years to keep this club a thriving and welcoming base for experienced and aspirant hillwalkers alike. Fifty years of hill-walking in the MRG are well worth treasuring and worthy of celebration. We hope that the articles and photographs herein will stir happy memories of past times and serve as a lasting record and souvenir of the five decades members have tramped the length and breadth of the Kingdom of Mourne. For others the Journal might serve as an insight into the club’s activities, both past and present. Many thanks to all who have contributed to this publication, in text and/or photographs. Finally thank you to our advertisers, without whose help this special edition would not have been financially viable.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, transmitted, transcribed, stored in a retrieval system, or translated into any language or computer language, in any form or by any means, without prior written permission from Christopher Earls Brennen. ISBN-0-9667409-1-2 Preface In this collection of stories, I have recorded some of my adventures on the mountains of the world. I make no pretense to being anything other than an average hiker for, as the first stories tell, I came to enjoy the mountains quite late in life. But, like thousands before me, I was drawn increasingly toward the wilderness, partly because of the physical challenge at a time when all I had left was a native courage (some might say foolhardiness), and partly because of a desire to find the limits of my own frailty. As these stories tell, I think I found several such limits; there are some I am proud of and some I am not. Of course, there was also the grandeur and magnificence of the mountains. There is nothing quite to compare with the feeling that envelopes you when, after toiling for many hours looking at rock and dirt a few feet away, the world suddenly opens up and one can see for hundreds of miles in all directions. If I were a religious man, I would feel spirits in the wind, the waterfalls, the trees and the rock. Many of these adventures would not have been possible without the mar- velous companionship that I enjoyed along the way.

  • Forestplans BAU 6 Strategic P
    Foreword I have great pleasure in publishing Coillte’s South Central Business Area Unit (BAU) strategic plan. The purpose of a BAU strategic plan is to set out plans for the forest and non-forest business that will take place in the BAU during the plan period. In practicing sustainable forest management Coillte’s aim is to develop its forests in a way that is environmentally sustainable, socially sustainable and economically sustainable. Coillte has applied the principles of environmental impact assessment and risk management to the potential interactions between forest activities and standard receptors in compiling these plans. The topics covered in the BAU strategic plan include: Commercial Planning: • planting • timber harvesting • timber sales • forest roads and access • licenses, lettings, recreation and non-forestry land uses • land acquisition and sales • non-forest business – such as renewable energy Planning for public benefits and public use: • Community facilities and benefits • Recreational and tourism infrastructure and partnerships • Access • Environmental enhancement measures such as biodiversity and nature conservation Planning for sustainable use of resources: • sustainable forest management • long term retention of trees • low impact Silvicultural1 systems • water quality • forest design • use of chemicals PJ Trait BAU Manager 1 Growing, cultivating and felling trees 1 Statement of Compliance with Principles of Sustainable Forestry Management The Coillte estate is a rich, high quality environmental resource, with the potential to interact with people, landscape, water and biodiversity. As such, Coillte recognises and seeks to minimise any potential adverse impacts of our business on the environment through responsible environmental management. We are committed to the prevention of pollution.
