Pate Knife by Gulliver

Location: Bingorm West (Lough Barra)
Grade: E1 5b
Length: 28m

First ascent: A Millar N Grimes (5/91)

Route Description:

Start as for IRB. Go straight up the crack, past a triangular niche at 6m (20ft). Bear on, and on, to where the crack trends right. Keep on following it, past a hollow flake, to grassy ledges and the top. Good value, especially if climbed in the low season. Pate Direct E2.5C A. Millar R. Moore. Straight up instead of moving left at flakes.

Great route, fairly sustained throughout. The top section of the route is a bit dirty, but still climbable. Crux felt to be above the triangular niche. Some of the moves on the route are great, I would give it *** and around E2 5b as there felt to be no real descent rests once you got going. Twos a nice climb.
