Great scramble and if you climb onto the arête can give you good exposure without much risk. Great for beginners as a training route for gear placement.

Sean led this today. Lovely, and ** I think if you do it from the very bottom. 50m. (the first half a fine scramble)

Finbarr and I climbed right of a narrow chimney to the base of the arête ,which was taken initially on the right, then left onto the crest. If this is the same route, it\'s pretty good, worth a star and V Diff. Taoishop would be more appropriate saying the crag is named after Garret Fitzgerald, haing been developed on the day of his funeral.
