    No expert, up there for the first time lately. Parked at north side of Doo Lough and went straight up the east side of Ben Lugmore, just west of the area marked Teevaree Rocks on maps. Took well over an hour of good scrambling to get to the top, but really enjoyable. Only problem was couldn't see hand in front of face with mist, so couldn't enjoy the very steep drops along the ridge between Ben Lugmore and Ben Bury. Spent whole day with head buried in compass, which was a great learning experience, but obviously took from the whole thing. Managed to make it to top of Mweelrea and skirted around Ben Bury and back down the Ramp. That was a bit tricky, had heard of it but couldn't see it, but on way up passed a cairn marking the top of an obvious path down and it looked right on the map so took a calculated risk. Took about 6 hours overall, moved quickly but without seeing anything suspect I didn't hit the most direct route up and down Mweelrea itself.
