Sidewinder

Location: Gola - Binatoke SW Wall
Grade: E2  5c
Length: No length recorded
First ascent: M.Daly, O.O'Regan 6 June '96
Route Description:

On the Binatoke west wall, near where it reaches the open sea, there is a belay ledge accessible by abseil. A number of routes start from here. It is situated approx. 20m along the wall from the open sea. A flat granite terrace yellow with lichen distinguishes the top. The ledge is tidal but is accessible for long periods in calm water.

From the ledge described above, climb up and gain a horizontal break that runs for 10m below the overlap. Follow this leftward and continue beyond the break for 4m by a hard move. Good friend protection all the way under the overlap.
