btw - We didn't find the route that loose towards the top. The rock seemed dead on and a bit more traffic would get rid of the loose bits. One of the more accessible stacks around an port and a good place to get started if your considering venturing further out to sea for second ascents of brother millers handy work

My beter half, Emma Ross took the photo. Myself on the lead and Jonny Allen belaying. Let me know if you want me to readjust the topo as I'm not sure if straight lines match exactly with the routes described on the right but I think they should be close enough

Superb photo, exactly what is needed for the guidebook: well composed, well exposed and climbers giving not only scale but the human touch too. Who took this?

Port Bay is to the North East of Glencolumbkille and it's well over two away
