Clew Bay
A week of sunny weather - it's offically a heatwave. This is a picture of Clew Bay from the top of Croagh Patrick - in the foreground are small islands known as drumlins, and beyond, the Nephin Beg mountain range [Nephin, at 806m, is the biggest mountain on the right].

Posted by Monasette at June 10, 2007 11:49 PMBeautiful John. I wonder how many climbers have seen this sight, considering every other shot I've seen from up there is shrouded in fog or cloud!
Posted by: Sean McCormack at June 11, 2007 11:25 PMIt's the first time I've seen that view, and I've climbed that hill plenty of times.
Best weather ever for climbing the Reek (unlike today, for instance)
Posted by: John at June 12, 2007 09:47 AMGreat shot!
All credit to you for having the great idea to climb it on such a fab day.
Posted by: CS at June 12, 2007 11:39 AMWonderful photo. I have seen the bay from Croagh Patrick in the sunlight before, but this is the best view I've seen. Makes me wish I was there right now.
