Location: Crohy Head South
Grade: VS  4c
Length: 25m
First ascent: A McKinstry (9/76)FFA Martin & Mark McGuigan, 05/04
Route Description:
VS + A1 Start: The obvious broad corner at the junction between the last buttress and the rotten back wall. Often wet as it is a natural drainage line. 4 points of aid used on the first ascent. Again the route is rather dirty towards the top.

Done this today because first time I've seen it dry. I also thought it abit harder than VS maybe HVS. I was told by my second that I'm not old school enough for the very wide bridging needed to make it easier.He's an ass. Still thought it a very good climb, deserves its stars.

Done a free ascent of Space Walker in summer 03 with Michael Sweeney. Thought it a little harder than VS but good even though top is a bit dirty - not sure if the loose block is still near the top right side!
