| Route Description: |
Grid Reference 567907. This route climbs the Landward face of the Southern most stack in the Lonely and awesome Glenlough Bay. Access is 3KM cliff top walk from the An Port road end, a 150 mtr scramble down to sea level and an 80 mtr sea passage. Cliff top descent details as for "Darkness Descends and Jenga" Stacks. Abseil descent of route. 1 35m 4c At the Southern end of the landward face, climb the left trending groove and continue upwards to a huge grassy ledge. Classic stack ground, a mixture of good/poor rock and a hint of insanity. 2 10m 4c From the centre of the grassy ledge climb the very obvious bulging and very wide crack on surprisingly good rock and moves to the summit. |
