Yeah, good idea. I haven't been there in years and crime was bad then.

the walk up the hill is not that bad I walked a twin set in.
Some of the original DIR-UK group carried Gavin scooters up there years ago.
I know people who have carried Zepps up there as well.

Oops, I just remembered I am signed up with Martyn in August
Ahh, but that's in Ireland isn't it? You can post pics suggesting it's even steeper and more slippery

Yep, and I am sure Al can photoshop some... errr sorry, take some suitably mountainous photographs while we are there. Acually, the last photos I saw were of he entrance to the caverns and it looks like we will won't have too much problems simulating a zero vis situation But that's about typical of the dives I have been doing over the last number of months.

I could always go up the Mourne Mountains and take a few photos, sure you wouldn't know the difference anyway

Have you ever seen the old film "The Quiet Man"? That town is where we will be staying - here is the area Mayo Guided Tours Cong County Mayo

Fantastic

I'm really looking forward to hearing all about your course out there. I bet it will be beathtaking. Get as many photos as you can
