	6b	★★ Space Shuttle	Trad 18m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	Neil O'Rourke	Wed 23rd May 2007
Tough, unforgiving slab... but fun!
		★★ The Masochist	Trad 20m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	Neil O'Rourke	Mon 21st May 2007
Creative slab-work required to get through the wonderful crux. Quite a friendly slab... for an E3!

A bit over my ability at the time, enjoyable, but unprotected
		Inside Straight	Trad 5m	Dalkey Quarry		John Goodall	Sun 29th Apr 2007
Fell off the lead about 5 times, did not have the strength to place gear. Still hard on second.
	5b HVS 5b	★★ Died Intestate	Trad 12m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sat 1st Jul 2006
so tempting to use off-route holds
	4b VS 4b	★★ Jameson 10	Trad 12m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Sun 10th Jun 2007
Amazing route.
	HVS	★★ Body Stretcher	Trad 18m	Dalkey Quarry	Average	John Goodall	Mon 24th Jul 2006

	4a S 4a	★★ West Wall	Trad 18m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sun 6th May 2007
I found this awkward to second, but the lead was a breeze, an excellent route to teach leading.
	4b VS 4b	★ Binglestein	Trad 24m	Dalkey Quarry	★ Good	John Goodall	Wed 6th Sep 2006
Looked dry from the base, was wet from half way. Took a pretty big fall on the last move, managed to get back on the horse and finish the climb. Good gear, plenty of it, fun climb.
	4b VS 4b	★ Eliminate A Dash	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Tue 6th Jun 2006

Unprotected slab to simple overhang, fun route
	4b HS 4b	★ Holymoac	Trad 6m	Dalkey Quarry	Don't Bother	John Goodall	Sun 25th Mar 2007
Decided to climb this using the fot ledge or hand holds, route was significantly more difficult and enjoyable. Not worth climbing standing on the ledge.
	4b VS 4b	★ Siesta	Trad 12m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sun 15th Oct 2006
two good moves, required micros to protect middle, .5 cam to protect second half, my weird rack pays off!
	4c VS 4c	★★ Damphomer	Trad 9m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Wed 5th Jul 2006
Borehole can be used for protection, but is better left as a handgrip, route's an excellent bouldering problem, the last section is just a severe.
	6b	★★ Space Shuttle	Trad 18m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Mon 21st May 2007
excellent slab all the way.
	5a HVS 5a	★★ Exertion	Trad 18m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Thu 7th Jun 2007
I keep forgetting how hard this climb is.
	4b VS 4b	★ Charlston Direct	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Wed 15th Mar 2006
Cracked my head on the overhang, bought a helmet later that day. An enjoyable route.

i keep forgetting how unprotected this is

good to be back in the HVS's

high winds, long run out crux finish, not great
	4b HS 4b	★★ Hiatus	Trad 14m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Sat 1st Jul 2006
Short, not too difficult, well protected, but extremely fun
	6b VS 6b	★ Drinker's direct	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	Average	John Goodall	Wed 30th May 2007
filthy dirty and very easy since the overhanging flake fell out. VD at most.
	4c VS 4c	★★ Winders Funnel	Trad 11m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sun 6th May 2007
excellent climb with a superb finish
	E1	★★ Little Wing	Trad 11m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Mon 24th Jul 2006

Great climbing, short but woth it
	5b VS 5b	★★ Sham Gully	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Sun 25th Mar 2007
An excellent route with a difficult start (unprotected start too) protection is sparse enough but bomber and at all the important points. An excellent route.
	S	Ivy Chimney	Trad 14m	Dalkey Quarry	Average	John Goodall	Sun 15th Apr 2007
great start, nice to teach people to lead on
	5b HVS 5b	★★ Blood Crack	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Thu 27th Jul 2006

Magic climbing, All friction no holds.
	4b VS 4b	★★ Dirty Dick	Trad 9m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Fri 17th Mar 2006
Laybacking and a dirty finish, would love to have onsighted
	5b	★★ The Ghost	Trad 20m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Mega Classic	John Goodall	Mon 24th Jul 2006
Each move difficult and worthwhile, very very little gear, good news for the second, nervous lead though.

ery little protection, but a good route
	4c VS 4c	Eleven's a crowd	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	Average	John Goodall	Sat 12th Aug 2006

	4c VS 4c	★★ Street Fighter	Trad 12m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Tue 14th Feb 2006
Excellent crack climbing (my first VS lead)
	5b	★ Poltergeist	Trad 20m	Dalkey Quarry	★ Good	John Goodall	Thu 7th Jun 2007
this did not seem as tricky as the e4 implied. completely unprotected after the mid point, constant deck potential.
		★★ Helios	Trad 34m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Sat 10th Jun 2006
excellent varied climbing
	D	Winders Crack	Trad 11m	Dalkey Quarry	Don't Bother	John Goodall	Thu 26th Apr 2007
perhaps nice as a first climb for a beginner.
	5a HVS 5a	★ Assassin	Trad 14m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sun 29th Apr 2007
wandered into this while attempting Supoena, last moves are excellent.

one side pull broke off over the winter, route now even better. Hard for a VS

brilliant start, hairy middle, and a dull end.

pointless traverse o the slab, did it without using hands for the most part.

I love this more every time i do it.
	4a S 4a	★★ Lumberjack	Trad 18m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sun 10th Jun 2007
One of the most enjoyable S graded climbs I've ever done.

Excellent route all round.
	5b VS 5b	★ Cyquest	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	★ Good	John Goodall	Sun 25th Mar 2007
This route has an excellent 5b start, and a terrible overly simple finish. We ended up skipping the finish and climbing the bold wall between sham gully and the finish of Cyquest, a good exciting finish.
	4c VS 4c	★ Mahjongg	Trad 12m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	John Goodall	Sun 2nd Apr 2006
A great route to lead, if you liek it you should also have a look at Died Intestate just to the right.
	4a S 4a	Damocles	Trad 14m	Dalkey Quarry	Average	John Goodall	Sun 15th Apr 2007
very short feeling route. 2 moves and it's over.
	5c	★ Holymoac Direct	Trad 8m	Dalkey Quarry	★★★ Classic	John Goodall	Thu 10th Aug 2006
tried to finish up the borehole, couldn't make it, took the proper route (moving left) instead. I thought i'd cheated untill i read the guide.

excellent pumpy route
	D	Gorse	Trad 15m	Dalkey Quarry	Don't Bother	John Goodall	Sat 1st Jul 2006
Climb finishes through a gorse bush, you will eb picking gorse out of your chalk bag and back for hours.
	E2 5b	★★ The Ghost	Trad 20m	Dalkey Quarry	★★ Very Good	Jana Musilova	Sun 14th Jun 2015
balancing
