Bouldering Discussion / family place for bouldering Dublin???
« on: October 20, 2012, 08:56:33 AM »
hi
is any nice family bouldering place around Dublin - i'm sure there is/are
i know Three Rock, so i'm looking something similar(boulders and flat grassy terrain), but maybe not on the top of the mountain - to windy/cold at this time of the year...
many thanks for any suggestion.
Pawel.

Bouldering Discussion / Re: Doesn't look like i will going to Inis Mor for some bouldering this weekend
« on: September 10, 2012, 09:54:33 AM »One of the things that's being checked at the moment is to see if the place has a designation like a Special Protection Area or a Natural Heritage Area etc.
as i know Inis Mor is a Special Area of Conservation (SAC) http://www.npws.ie/protectedsites/specialareasofconservationsac/
and i know that few years ago was a idea to do a Special Protection Areas (SPA) on inis mor and i was sure that this was ONLY idea becouse i didnt hear anything else about that... but i found this today: http://www.npws.ie/protectedsites/specialprotectionareasspa/inishmorespa/ what thats mean... is inis mor a SPA??? if is what with climbing???

i took some photos, so you can see how it looks like:
the white "stones" is a cement (this is the top of the cliff - the place with diving board)
paint marks
drill holes
bolt

edit: what is wrong with the photo links???

hi
i checked Poll na Peist and is OK - no damaged to any bouldering, but away from "leave no trace" and i found some leftovers like drill holes, bolts, nails, some paint marks and something that looks like a cement/concrete (probably used to stabilize diving board)... For myself thats too much leftovers (because i really like this place) but generally is OK
And thanks to Red Bull this place is much more popular (i was there after 8 pm and i met 7 tourists - never happend before) and unfortunately like everywhere: more tourists = more rubbish

hi
the Poll na bPeist looks like a bit industrial now ... http://a5.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/302468_500459893302624_1973386600_n.jpg
i hope, that they dont do a lot of damage to the rocks...
but Poll na bPeist is not the only place for bouldering on inis mor
