Once I had my dinner eaten after school, Dad and I were in the car with our walking gear headed for two (semi) local High Points; Mullaghanish & Musheramore. As we were coming to the end of round 1 of the All-Ireland Hillwalking Championships, we had already visited all the our local Sport Hillwalking Locations, so these 2 were the closest that we could complete in an evening. Mind you, it still took 1hr 20mins to get to Mullaghanish!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily for us, the gates to the mast road were open so we were able to drive to the top; an easy 9 points!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next up was the short but steep Musheramore. We brought wellies with us as this is usually quite muddy! It was a brilliant evening with the sun\u2019s golden rays shining on our backs but even with the wellies, we still had to watch our step as we climbed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After logging on Peakhunter, we slowly descended, being careful not to submerge ourselves in the bog or slip into a slide down the mud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily, after avoiding a few close calls, we made it back to the car just as the sun was setting on the horizon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
