On the doorstep to Wexford Town, Forth Mountain can't claim huge height, but it still impresses with some wonderful views, and an untamed wilderness.
Directions (thanks to Michael) :-
Take the Duncannon Road exit (R733) at the Duncannon Road Roundabout (Beside the Whitford Hotel). Proceed West for about three miles. Watch out for a fairly large sign indicating a left turn for Murntown. When you get to the junction, don't turn for Murntown, instead take a right turn up the hill (beware of some serious potholes after about a half mile!). After about a mile you will start to go downhill. Watch out for some large rock outcrops on your right. One of these, a couple of hundred yards back from the road has a white cross on top of it. Stop at the parking area just below this rock - this is our meeting point.

Sorry Anne - we'll try again next Sunday ..
Really disapointed, I'm all ready to go, if I see one little
patch of blue I'm there!. Can't make it tomorrow
Well - we'll keep an eye on here. We need some code word to be ready to run out the door :)
If all else fails...we'll just postpone till the following Sunday...or just bring rain gear .
According to Met Eireann, Monday now also looks like a wash-out! Agggghhhhh!
Understood
I'm afraid it's giving heavy and persistent rain tomorrow, so in such an exposed location, we need to postpone this paint out to this Monday, when a couple of us are planning to try again. If anyone is free , drop over....
