The Mermaid, |
| Location: Skelpoonagh Bay Grade: HS 4a Length: 25m |
| First ascent: Alan Tees, Valli Schafer 6/5/12 |
| Route Description: |
| Beyond the chimney the slabs taper into an arête as they tumble to the surf. Descent is by abseil to a small ledge (not possible at high tide). Start up on the stepped arête, move right, and gain a big ledge. From here a pristine diedre leads to an airy ramp, for which you will need small wires, and a delicate move to gain the pockled upper wall, and belay. Nice! |
