Toralaydan Island

 I've edited a couple of films shot last summer on the An Port coastline.

 The first is of an ascent Baby Dan Stack an outlaying island of the huge Toralaydan Island. Access to the stack involves a very committing 1KM sea passage from the Port road end, through the collection of road end stacks and a further 500m open ocean sea crossing to the landward face of Toralaydan Island. A further wee sea passage takes you to the base of this stack, it's location is a bit of a mindblower.

 The second video is of an ascent of Toralaydan Island, this island has a huge flat grass summit and maps of the area from 1800's show sheep pens on the summit. it must have been epic getting the sheep to and from the island. The view from this islands summit back to mainland Donegal is outstanding and is the main reason for editing this wee film.
