Clare Glens

Last week we did a mission down to the Clare Glens, just outside limerick. Met up with up Rob, loaded the van and headed southwest. What I realised after a while was Rob's van doesn't go that fast so it took a little longer than 2 hours to drive down.
The Glens consists of 4 main drops
At the put in Top Drop -around 8-10feet.
Sidewinder- around 8-10feet.
Big Eas- 14feet.
Little Eas- a 2tier drop with a not so nice hole at the bottom.

The rest of the run is nice Class 3-4 whitewater. One good reason to live down the South of Ireland.
There is only really one main thing to be alert about when getting on this river, Fallen Trees.
