Seven people enjoyed a superb day’s walking through the Horse’s Glen, and up the south-east gully onto Mangerton. Lunch was had sitting on a grassy knoll in the Horse’s glen in warm sunshine, looking out over the mid-Kerry plain, with the occasional rumble of falling snow and ice from the cliffs in the glen. There is still plenty of snow on the mountain top, with some drifts nearly knee deep. We have never seen the summit of a mountain so busy before – people appeared from all sides to congregate on the summit, at the punchbowl, and on the path down. Total walking time was 6 hours, with only a brief hint of rain.
