43m.
Ben Cormac (Lough Barra)
Directions: Large vegetated crag (Ben Cormac) fernenst Lough Barra. There is a cleaned slab to its right (Sirloin Slab) and a separate hillock further right (East) again, with an obvious right angled corner facing the road (Carrig an Sneachda).
Map ref: B926125
Start 2 metres left of the lowest point of the slab. Move up left to right trending cracks, surmounting a slight bulge (delicate) until just below a horizontal quartzite vein. Excellent move up over bulge leads to thin crack on right which shortly fades out. Step left into major crack in centre of slab and follow (layback) to top. Good selection of small cams comes in handy
