Its a 5.6 mantel into heaven, man

Location: Dunsevrick
Grade: HS 4b
Length: 12m

First ascent: Trevor Hartley and Alfie Conn 26/5/2013

Route Description:

Start just left of the "Tara Road" and make a rising traverse left across the slab above the gap in the walkway. (This gap is really just an awkward step) Aim for the corner and the edge of the ledge above. The ledge is broad and has two parallel cracks in the wall above. Two mantelshelves up the wall, to the right of these cracks, takes you to the top

At last a route that is easier for those of average stature! If you wimp out of the mantels, there is the "Think Pink" finish at VD up the right hand crack. There is also the "Too much to Drink" finish which involves stepping over to the right (the end of "The Tara Road") and scrambling to the top
