Ben Crom, the easier way!

Up at 06:00 and in the Mournes for 08:00! Great wet fun though. Climbed to the summit of Ben Crom (526m) in 1 hour and 37 minutes. Couldn't see twenty yards in front of us for most of the time and I had to take my glasses off two or three times and put them away due to the rain. Having said that, it was great exercise and pal Les is great company.
This was followed by a couple of hours in work, coffee with colleagues and some grocery shopping, a visit to the parentals and then home to spend some time with the grand-sprogs. A great day off. Did I mention it was wet?
Extras below include a picture of an unhappy Chloe who didn't want to go home and a few views from the peak of the mountain - through that murk is Silent Valley Reservoir.
