A 19 km hike and wild camp in the Bluestack Mountains. Starting from the Old School House to the north and climbing Glascarns Hill and Croaghbane before returning to beautiful and cold camp at Lough Belshade. A steep ascent in the morning along a stream took me through the rugged rock and water ever higher above Lough Belshade to the main Bluestack ridge and the summits of Ardnageer Sw Top and Ardnageer. Return was along the Effernagh River on frozen ground on the northern side of the hills.
