Pioneers and Alcoholics |
| Location: Skelpoonagh Bay Grade: VS 4b Length: 30m |
| First ascent: P Nolan, J Walls (9/90) |
| Route Description: |
| The next three routes are on the other side of the zawn and are approachad by an easy sea level traverse from the front of the zawn or by a short abseil from the ramp above Pioneers and Alcoholics This route takes the corner formed by the right side of the cave and the zawn wall. Another adventurous outing giving reasonable climbing though what looks from below to be not so reasonable territory. Start on the huge flat topped boulder on the right side of the cave mouth. Climb directly up from the platform, steeply at first until it is possible to step left onto the diagonal hanging Slab. Move across left to the end of the slab,then up steeply until progress is barred by overhangs. From here ,make a traverse right to easier ground. A short flake crack above leads to the top. |
