Bouldering on Camaderry – draft chapter
The bouldering potential on the southern slopes of Camaderry is very clear when driving up the Wicklow Gap. Over the years a number of people have explored the area and climbed new problems, but it’s never been properly documented. I suspect some problems have had multiple ‘first ascents’.
I have spent some time pulling together as much information as I can, documenting both the climbed and unclimbed problems. Rather than publishing the guide with a lot of unclimbed problems I’ve decided to release the Camaderry chapter in a rough form in the hope that many of the projects get done before I go to print.
In 2015 I was contacted by a climber who had done 30 problems up here and cleaned another 40. I requested details, but they never replied. Yesterday they passed on details of their problems and they are now included here.
This is a good chance to get some first ascents. None of the projects need much cleaning, many will go at reasonable grades – all the info is here on a plate.
A P indicates the problem hasn’t been done, while a ? means it has been done but I’m not sure of the grade.

Please get in touch if you have done anything up here in the past or get any of the projects ticked.
