Might be useful to have a thread for people to post photos or links to photos from the great outdoors.

Photos from Adventure race taken on Croaghanmoira with fab and clear views around Wicklow and the south last Saturday are here

Saw the rare sight of Slievenmon on the horizon down south whilst hanging out on the peak. Didn't have a suitable lense though to pick it up..

A couple of shots from my Mourne Wall Walk earlier this year - nearly killed me!

On the summit of Binnian early in the day - feeling great

The wonderful view from Binnian down to Spelga Dam - had the mountain all to myself!

Looking across at Muck from SLievenaglogh

On the last major bit of ascent (up Donard) looking back at Commedagh - legs no longer working!

I'm tempted to say that's Bundoran, but I'm not entirely sure.

On the approach to the west summit (~8800ft elev.) of Castle Towers Mountain in Garibaldi Provincial Park, BC, Canada.

Fair play SJ, great photos, you must have been hours on that hill.
What a fantastic day, views for miles around. Pity it's not like that all the time in Wicklow.

I'm in about 5 of your photos.
1 is a rear view (I'd know that bald spot anywhere) strangely in two I'm taking photos myself (competitor or tourist ??) and even more strangely in the other two I'm smiling. Smiling at the top of Croaghanmoira, weird or what ??

Yes straight up the Great Gully. Topping out was a bit hairy as the snow texture suddenly changed and wasn't as solid as the rest of the climb. Not often you get days like these in the Irish hills. Here's hoping for another white winter!:cool:

:P indeed. Although that route on Muckish looks fantastic, it's exactly the kind of climbing I love.

Moderator note folks: Can we avoid including photographs when quoting other posters? It can take quite a while for the thread to load for people on slower internet connections.

Just stitched these shots together last night. Climbed to the top of Coumshingaun in March for Sunrise, there was still ice up there. It was worth the effort in the darkness
