Approximately 12m to the right of the old lookout is a deep crack/groove capped by overhangs. Lion's Share starts up a crack 4m right of the deep groove.
Either scramble to the summit or find the abseil anchor at the top of Bantry Crag. One 60m abseil gains the lookout level.
P1 - 20m, 5a: Climb the crack to a ledge below the overhang. Move right to a break. Climb the break to the vegetated band above. Scramble across the vegetated band to a scoop/shallow recess just left of a very low cave. This is about 4m right of Rainbow Crag's second pitch and about 5m left of Route By T. Huges.
P2 - 17m, 5a: Climb the shallow recess to the ledge above. Climb a crack that flares higher up. At the small roof move right onto the face and then up to the next ledge.
P3 - 18m, 5b: Climb up onto the white block with the cairn on top. Move up and 1.5m right to follow a thin crack straight up to a narrow shelf. Move right along the shelf until able to follow an easy break to the ledges above.
P4 - 8m, 4b: Climb a face to the right of a crack to finish.
Variation to P2, 6a+:
FA: D. Mercer and M. Burmeister, 2007.
Climb the jam crack the splits the wall above the low cave immediately right of the shallow recess. At the ledge above, step 2m left to continue up the flaring crack.
