Great Sugarloaf






Last Sunday, M, John and I hiked up the Great Sugarloaf Mountain. The "Hiking in Ireland" book that we have said it should take 2 1/2 hours to hike. It took us 3 1/2 hours. We hiked up the difficult side, though. When we got to the top, we saw a much easier trail going up the mountain than we had taken. Since M's car was parked on the difficult side, we hiked down this side also and had to make our own trails for part of the way.

After hiking, we were hungry so we drove over to Johnnie Fox's. It is really nice there but since the wait was over half an hour for food we went to the Porterhouse North instead. Yummy!

The hike was intense but we stopped frequently to admire the view. It really is a beautiful walk and surroundings.
