The Gaoth Dobhair to Letterkenny road becomes visible again. Civilization? Not yet. I have not met a single person on this mountain. But I can now hear sheep bleating again. And I see a black snail. How long did it take him to get up here? One million years?
Back to the marshy, muddy peat wetlands. Slipping and sliding.

The Poisened Glen


The Poisened Glen comes into view. A faint evening sun momentarily sweeps over it's valley. I am nearly back down. I reach the bottom at 20.30pm. Tired. Sore. Happy!
