Glengad Girls *

Location: Culdaff - Dunowen (Campsite Area)
Grade: HS 4b
Length: 30m

First ascent: Alan Tees, Pete Smith 27/04/99

Route Description:

Big, hairy, but not as loose as it might appear!! Almost at sea level lovate a corner, capped with an overhang. Start up the corner but move out right on good holds to the base of an obvious line of weakness. The crux is about 2/3 height where a delicate step out left from the corner to the wall. Thread runner above, and a narrow chimney leads to the top.

This route was always thin on gear which made it scarier than the average HS.

Sounds hairy and scary! Can we have a repeat to see if there's a grade change? Also I think this route could do with being started directly-just a thought! Also, has anybody repeated Honeysuckle (E2)to the left of G.Girls yet?

couldn't find any gear above the ledge on this one and a hold coming off confirmed the retreat!
