No Peter. would not bother with variant or anything - its really a boulder problem of a route but well worth doing - Crohy South is the only place in Donegal where you climb on micro-granite ie. it dosent rip the shit out of your hands.

Is this the 'Boyle Variant' and does it go at a different grade? Have you any un-submitted lines here? Guidebook in process.

When i did this i climbed directly up which seemed more logical than the description given. the rock is superb but difficulties are short-lived.

Incorrectly numbered on topo in guide. Route 8 is "Out of Touch"
