Run from Long Womans Grave across the ridge to Foye before dropping down to Glenmore to collect bikes and cycle back to starting point.

Superb morning with a debatable cloud inversion.

Cycle back to LWG into a strong wind was hellishly hellish.

Slieve Foye Ridge from the Windy Gap + Cycle

Date: Saturday, October 29th 2011

Distance: 13.65km

Height Gain: 516m

Time: 2h 32m 17s

A run of the Carlingford Mountain ridge staring at Windy Gap and taking in Foxes Rock, Ravens Rock, Split Rock and then Slieve Foye.

Shocking conditions (heavy mist and windy). Ably navigated by Jason with iPhone GPS backup.

Dropped back down to the gap between Foye and Barnavave and followed Tain Way back to the road before cycling back to the Windy Gap.
