This looks cool:  Some Tollymore paddler type must know the exact location of this? DWS-able? |

dunno where that is but there's loads of spots like it all over donegal, problem is the water is usually too shallow or when you make the effort to get on them they're loose or covered in bird shit or have nesting birds that attack you (I've had all three). I did find a cool DWS spot a few years ago between downings and dunfanaghy on the atlantic drive, we onsighted 4 easy routes up to HVS but there are two overhanging projects on the wall, one of which is pretty hard...

danny that looks like a mega chuff fest! it looks like one of those sea stack things that yer man does the cool articles about on climbing.ie. ian miller is that his name? the background looks very much like one of the photos he posted with one of his articles.

Its in the Slieve League neck of the woods, so it must be fairly close to those amazing looking sea stacks. I like the sound of overhanging DWS projects, but all these sort of antics will have to wait for the next monsoon season.

This link is good for on-line drooling at sea cliffs .... http://gis3.dcmnronline.ie/imf5104/imf.jsp?site=Helicopter  At least they spent these tax shillings on something useful! |

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

Grid Reference G523876 for this beast. Just to the south of The Sturrall Headland, Access for non paddler troops is a 2km walk from Skelpoonagh followed by a 200 m grovelfest down steep grot to a lonely wee beach and a 100 (or so) metre swim with Neptune. Upon your further investigations, there live much, much more interesting propositions to the North of this baby Leviathan.
