With a good guide The Devil’s Ladder is not so daunting.
Pat Falvey Irish & Worldwide Adventures Limited的点评
点评:My son and I climbed Carauntoohil with John O’Shea as our guide. Communication with Pat and John in the planning of the climb was seamless and John kept in touch the week before while we all monitored the weather prospects for the day. We were fairly lucky with the conditions, as it was largely clear and dry, with just a few showers and the inevitable mist at the top. The wind was manageable. John entertained, encouraged and assured us throughout. At 76 I was able to cope with the Devil’s Ladder with his help! Reaching the peak was a memorable moment for myself and my son, as we tried to do it once before (30 years previously) but had to turn back. The descent as always was more challenging than the outward leg and the zigzags need to be approached with almost as much caution. I’m so pleased that my wife discovered Pat Falvey and his team. Thanks once again to John for his outstanding work on the day. A truly memorable experience in every way. Best wishes to John and his partner for the happy event to come.
翻译:我和儿子在约翰·奥谢的陪同下攀登了卡拉昂图希尔山。在行程规划阶段,我们与帕特及约翰的沟通十分顺畅。出发前一周,约翰还不断与我们保持联系,同时我们一同关注着当天的天气情况。当天的天气还算不错:大部分时间晴朗干燥,只有零星阵雨,山顶上则出现了常见的雾气。风力也在可承受范围内。整个过程中,约翰不仅为我们带来欢乐,还不断鼓励并安抚我们。76岁的我,在他的帮助下成功登上了“魔鬼梯”!登顶的那一刻对我和我的儿子来说都意义非凡——我们曾在30年前尝试过攀登,但最终不得不折返。和往常一样,下山比上山更具挑战性,那些之字形山路也需要以同样的谨慎态度来应对。我很高兴我的妻子结识了帕特·法尔维和他的团队。再次感谢约翰当天所做的出色工作。无论从哪方面来说,这都是一次令人难忘的体验。祝愿约翰和他的伴侣迎来幸福的时刻!
