Turin Shroud

Location: Culdaff - Dunowen (Brazil Rock)
Grade: HS 4b
Length: 18m

First ascent: ???

Route Description:

Just West of Brasil Rock is a steep West facing wall, above a stoney bay. Access from Brasil rock through a gully by a cave. This takes the prominent central line, which was cleaned by Columba McLaughlin, but some dubious rock still remains.

Columba's New Route - Can you see it? The Turin Shroud, or is it a Norman Knight?

I think I might have kicked him on the nose, and it broke aff!

Columba and I climbed this route 5/05/08, but there was a party on it at the Climbfest, two days previously. The name and grade are therefore provisional.

The "face" on it is remarkable, isn't it?
