The Blackstairs Mountains Challenge – And A Lot More!

First up on our agenda for the day, The Blackstairs Mountains Challenge! We had Mount Leinster logged before 07:45 and Mount Leinster East Top by 08:12. Not bad!

To conclude The Blackstairs Mountains Challenge we headed over to Blackstairs Mountain. We were trying our best to stay ahead of the bad weather, so speed was of the essence!

Now that we had completed The Blackstairs Mountains Challenge, we paid a visit to the highest point of county Kilkenny, Brandon Hill.

Next, we headed over to The Comeraghs to log Knocksheegowna & Knockanaffrin. By logging these now, it would cut out a lot of walking when we return to log the rest of The Comeraghs.

We drove over to The Knockmealdowns with a similar tactic. By logging Knocknafallia East, Knocknafallia West, & Knocknagnauv, cutting off the eastern side of the Knockmealdowns.

Then, to conclude the day, it was over to the other side of the Knockmealdowns for Knockshanahullion & Knocknalougha.
