Fear of Feathers * * |
| Location: Muckross Head Grade: E5 6a Length: 18m |
| First ascent: D O'Sullivan, Janette Dugdale (28/6/91). First free ascent - Paul Dunlop |
| Route Description: |
| 4m right of the direct start to Granny by Gaslight, and 5m left of the huge cave, two high cracks run up a couple of metres apart. This route takes the right-hand crack. Here the base of the crag juts out. Directly above this, a thin crack cuts through the roofs. This is the main ingredient of the route. Slip easily up for 2m to a stance. A hard move will precipitate one at the foot of the first roof (small friends). Glide acrobatically over this to a welcome rest. Now go up a crack to a flat jug. Arrange protection here for the crux moves through the final roof, and finish up over a huge block. Highly strenuous. |
