eretochat, Best you will do is a couple of hundred meters no more than 300-400 on Kippure or Djouce.
There is a bit up around Glen Cri and near Killake car park.
There is some decent stuff in the trees in sehan aswell
Most of it is not worth the up to down ratio but I guess its all up to personal prefrence.

eretochat, Its the hghest mountain in Dublin just beyond Bohernabreena there is some great skiing to be had through the trees and it was where one of Irelands mobile toe ropes was regulary set up.
Personally I really dont thing there is anywhere in wicklow with the current conditions where the ski down is worth the walk up but hey diffrent strokes for diffrent folks

Old Mill pub is your best land mark follow the sings for Bohernabrenna and follow the road untill you see a high cross to your left at a fork in the road take the left and about 1/2 mile down the road you will see a car park follow the path to the top and ride

Hey all went up past Wicklow way past Glendelough, high mountains yesterday, we climbed for ages until we found snow was between 1 and 5 feet depending on snow drift and wind back eddie of trees/forests, but after all it was a f nightmare to board on, bloody heather all over the f place lol, but had a laugh, now the bindings are off the boards put them away boo hoo till Christmas.
