On the way to Carrantouhil following Brother O'Shea's route you cross a cascade stream before tackling the first climb of the route to bring you up to the gully. That cascade can be followed upwards to a mountain that offers fabilous views of Carrantouhil but is very tricky to descend. But what is it called?

I did think that but then checked and it is number 2 in Ireland so figured it was tough going but not that tough.
Also there is a ridge route from there to the big one but I didn't see it. Although I wasn't actually looking for it.
