Ancient Mariner

Location: Malinbeg (South End)
Grade: VD  -
Length: 30m
First ascent: J Leonard, G Barrett (8/5/79)
Route Description:
The next three routes are located on another obvious promontory to the south of Castaway. There is a deep overhanging corner immediately south of the promontory followed by a large slab which runs as far as the cave running into the blowhole. This slab contains a further three routes. Ancient Mariner starts with an abseil down the rib of the promontory to some large blocks. Traverse left across the bottom of the promontory slabs for about 10m to reach a higher ledge below the slab above. The route takes a line from here to finish on the north side of the promontory a few metres from Castaway, by following a small corner crack on the left side.
