Today, I had the opportunity to return to the Nephin Begs to complete the Glendahurk Loop Walk. The hike took me to the summits of Glenamong and the two Corrannabinnas, and I also had the chance to traverse the renowned Arete between the two for the very first time.

A great hike into the wild remote Nephin Beg range of mountains today is somewhat conflicted with an image of a renewable energy wind farm on the other side of the mountain.

Today, I went on a hiking adventure to capture some stunning images of the Doo Lough valley. I followed the Bunleemshough River back to its source in Corrydavit, surrounded by high hills on three sides. The loop of hills provided breathtaking views of Clew Bay, the Sheeffry Hills, and Mweelrea, the highest mountain in Connaught. The remnants of snow still lying on top of the mountains made for an even more enjoyable sight.

Today, I take a hectic trek along the northern side of Maumtrasna to visit the three glacial corries of Luga Buidhe, Luga Gowlan, and Luga Kippen to see if there is anything interesting to see.

Today's walk calls for a hike across the Corraun plateau near Achill Island to take in the breathtaking views and vistas from Corraun Hill and Slieve Aghkerane.

A bout of COVID, among other things, has kept me from hiking until now. I trekked to Corranabinnia's south-west summit, which is just under 700 meters high. This trip could be considered the second part of the Glendahurk loop walk.

A nice hike on the Farbreiga near Pontoon sees me climbing about 400 meters to the mountain's summit and ascending a slew of other smaller hills in the locality.
