Lap around Glending, the nicest forest I know in Leinster. I thought this before, but now after another year it has grown more and is even nicer... problem is it's half owned by roadstone who have no desire to give us permission to orienteer there, so much so we haven't even mapped it, even though we have the beautiful LIDAR data, which includes the quarry, which looks great.
The other half has a lovely ring fort at the top, causing more problems.
In any case a nice run but I forgot my GPS

Woodenboley -> Corriebracks -> Church Mountain -> Woodenboley
Started off up the steep thorny path and then thought I remembered the place and took all the wrong turns and ended up finding the map I had very necessary. Got onto the forest road at the back of Church. It's such a horrible road, 2k of just gentle uphill, but enough to make you hurt and it goes on, and on, and on. Then up Corriebracks with only the very top being boggy, I went down via the Air Crash site from 2008 out of curiosity.
Came back around the side of Corriebracks and debated taking the shorter straight up Church path but stuck to the plan and went lower before crossing the gate saying "Beware of Bull" where I highly doubt there is a bull. Then a steep climb up to Church ridge and along the fence to the top. For some reason there was a rock on top of nearly every fence post along this stretch so I put a few on that had fallen off. It was clear today so the view from the top was great, Lug looking big as ever!
The descent was then a steep and rocky path that tired my legs. I found the last bit on forest roads tough, especially the small climb at the end I hadn't anticpated but remembered from the days of CNOC summer series events in Woodenboley once I saw it.
Nice run in an area I haven't been in a long while, and I think Corriebracks is a new mountain for me.
