Just taken delivery of my new Freelander 2. Great on the highways and byways...very comfortable ride, speed ramps no problem...snow - great fun, going where two wheel drive's can't and loving every mile...snow pictures taken atop Slieve Gallion just outside Cookstown Northern Ireland. It is the eastern limit of the Sperrin Mountains range reaching a height of 528 metres (1,730 ft). Slieve Gallion is a volcanic plug. The mountain is formed from volcanic-derived igneous rock and also granite on the southern slopes. It is steep and has a flat top. There is a telecommunications mast on the northeastern summit. To the west the landscape consists of blanket bog and coniferous forest; most of the trees in the Slieve Gallion area are Sitka spruce. There are also lodgepole pine trees, as well as oak towards the south of the area. Animal species living in the area include the Irish hare (a sub-species of the mountain hare, curlew and red grouse. Otters can also be found around nearby rivers...so more visits with suitable photo equipment are on the cards!
