Respite

Location: Melmore- Rosses Point
Grade: HVS 5a
Length: 30m

First ascent: K McGee, G Scott, P Tinney. 27/03/11

Route Description:

This climb starts up the perfect crack near the bottom of the upper platform in the main area. Climb the crack to the top, swing round on good holds to reach easy ground that leads right, follow this to the base of the headwall. Climb the leftward trending crack to the top. (This was climbed in 2 pitches on the first ascent. There's a good belay ledge near the top of the initial crack which puts the belayer a safe distance from the waves and make communication on the upper wall easier)

Climbed this again on the 18/04/2017. We done it in 2 pitches with Adam doing the excellent first pitch. Second pitch is even better but much harder. Great route.
