Another perfect day
Keep safe, keep well, keep walking.

It was a perfect day for a leisurely stroll from Soldierstown car park along Broadwater to Aghalee

Alison led a high speed loop in the Cooleys, perfectly timed to get back to the cars before torrential rain.

Can you help?
Does anyone recognise the bird perched on this stile?

A few caving difficulties didn't spoil an otherwise excellent walk with another fizz-box found along the way.
Clare Glen
A blue sky day and 15°C for Clare Glen. Wood Anemone and Celandine in full bloom. Great wee dander - and of course coffee in the Courthouse to cap off another perfect day.
Ben Crom
A perfect day for a most challenging walk - Happy Valley to Meelbeg, Doan and Ben Crom where the elusive Ben Crom cave was located and explored.
Tollymore
Shimna River
Ott Track
Shirley led a group of 8 eager walkers up the peaks of Slieve Loughshannagh, Carn and Ott. Our route enabled us to enjoy views of the snow capped peaks of Donard and many others. A very enjoyable day with pleasant weather conditions.

Another perfect day for a classic walk from Carlingford on the Barnavave Loop. Thanks Shirley.
Tollymore
Lunch at the Maghera Inn
As promised, it was rain all the way at Tollymore but that didn't stop us enjoying more great walks in Tollymore and, for a lucky few, lunch afterwards at the Maghera Inn. Another perfect day.

Lovely weather for ducks
The promised strong winds in the Yellow Weather Warning had passed by the time we started our walk at Oxford Island on 12 March and the threatened heavy rain proved to be no more than medium drizzle. So five of us enjoyed a short walk from Kinnego Marina to Lough Neagh Discovery Centre for a well earned and enjoyable coffee break before returning to our cars. John even managed a small fry with his cuppa to recharge his battery. So it was another perfect day after all.
