Golden Salamander

Location: Dungloon (Kinnego)
Grade: VS  4b
Length: 40m
First ascent: J Rotherham, B McDermott. 11/5/80
Route Description:
This takes the obvious right angled corner on "The Galleon" (the big sea stack usually accessible from the shore). Access by abseil. Climb up left of the corner, and traverse right to reach the bottom of the corner. Lower section of this route can be lacquered in thick green slime, and upper section infested with Fulmar chicks suffering from chronic salmonella. An experience!
