High Hopes headed this morning to the Glenade valley for a hike to Truskmore. Already most of the group were waiting, ready and rearing to go. Soon we were heading up the track and on to the steep zig zag route to the plateau. The views of Glenade are stunning and we continued on to the summit of Truskmore. There we sat and enjoyed our lunch and celebrated the conquest of Sligo and Leitrim high spots. Congratulation to all. With everyone in high spirits we headed back down to the car park where Eliza suggested a slight deviation to the coffee shop at Drumcliffe. We needed no second bidding.
Thanks to all who came today and it was a pity that a couple of potential summiteers were unable to make it. We wish Dianne good health in hospital and Cathal's uncle a speedy recovery, also Sarah who had to cancel due to an illness. We look forward to having you join in another adventure soon.
Truskmore summit trig point. The highest point in County Sligo and Leitrim.
