Looking over Lough Bray Lower and the upper Glencree valley from the top of the Eagles Crag Co Wicklow.
I tried climbing the eagles crag a couple of years ago but gave up. I did not fancy descending back down it at the time - it is very steep and exposed and the ground was frozen on that occasion - and I was not sure of the other routes leading off the top back to the road.
Still with a couple of hours to kill this weekend I went up it to the top in cold overcast conditions and followed the path on the rim of the corrie wall back down to the Military Road. It turned out to be a fun little loop with some great views.
The house on the shore of the lough is Lough Bray House which was originally a shooting lodge connected to the Powerscourt Estate further down Glencree Valley. The roadside gatelodge is apparently the highest inhabited house in Ireland and I guess this now applies to Lough Bray House since it is a private residence and slightly higher up the valley.
This is an iPhone shot given a lift in Topaz.

I posted this a few days ago...then took it down because I was not sure about the colour. Still not sure but here is is again
The Military Road curling round the Oasis and heading down towards Glenmacnass in County Wicklow. Shot from the top of Carrigshouk.
I have been driving under the steep Eastern face of Carrigshouk for years and often wondered what the view was like from the top so took a quick look on Sunday.
The Oasis is an old section of woodland that is now surrounded by forestry and I am not sure where the name originates from, possibly just the hillwalking community. The lake in the distance is Lough Dan which sits under Knocknacloghoge to its left.
Not a bad location really for relatively small effort to reach.

La ciutat de Girona -també anomenada la Florència catalana- és una urbs esplèndida.
Aquest sobrenom de 'la Florència catalana' es remunta a l'època del magnífic alcalde Joaquim Nadal Farreras; però la Girona del 2018 és moltes coses més.
Girona té una certa similitud amb la magnífica ciutat occitana -dintre de l'Estat francès- de Montpeller.
Girona és una ciutat en què es respira cultura, saviesa, tolerància i diversitat.
És una ciutat universitària destacada; amb bons serveis i comunicacions, i en què es percep una modernitat integradora, i amb tocs molt adients de sofisticació, la qual cosa es converteix en una lloc amb molta qualitat de vida.
Girona podria ser perfectament la capital de Catalunya. És més, hauria de ser la capital de la propera República catalana.
Girona, la Florència catalana, la petita Montpeller; ciutat grisa i levítica dels anys 60 i 70 del segle passat, ha passat a ser una ciutat esplendorosa, oberta, europea i lliurepensadora.

Girona falls in love with me
The city of Girona - also called the Catalan Florence - is a splendid city.
This nickname of 'Catalan Florence' goes back to the time of the magnificent Mayor Joaquim Nadal Farreras; but Girona 2018 is a lot more.
Girona has a certain resemblance to the magnificent Occitan city - in the French State - of Montpellier.
Girona is a city where culture, wisdom, tolerance and diversity are breathed.
It is an outstanding university city; with good services and communications, and in which an integrating modernity is perceived, and with very appropriate touches of sophistication, which becomes a place with a high quality of life.
Girona could be perfectly the capital of Catalonia. Moreover, it should be the capital of the next Catalan Republic.
Girona, Catalan Florence, the small Montpellier; The gray and levitic city of the 60s and 70s of the last century, has become a splendid, open, European and free-thinking city.
