Info, not ticked: Had a good look from kayak, with Jonglew. Slabs E side look reasonable for landing, although not in today's 0.9m swell. Slabby ascent NW looks reasonable, may be an ok scramble if not slippery. N arete may be hard, difficult to tell how bad the rock is.... Rope likely useful, at least for abseil. Longish paddle from BoscastleRHW18/07/2023
Info only. A very impressive tall and pointy stack close to the coast with a cairn visible at the top.There are two Mick Fowler routes ( which normally carry a health warning) up the out of sight seaward face - both given HVS and stars for quality. They must have been good, because Fowler returned on successive weekends to climb each one - despite the 100 foot swim to reach the stack. That was in 1984 with no subsequent ascents recorded on Uk climbing. Surprisingly the NE corner seems ( from the clif top coast path opposite) to offer a feasible looking scramble, initially on ledgey rock but soon onto reasonably angled grass . Getting established is probably the hardest part.Chris Pearson27/08/2018
Non-summit log. Kayaked out from Boscastle. Meachard and Short island visited first. This looked the more difficult to get onto and the more difficult to summit due, amongst other issues, the summit tower of what looked like shale rock. Very tricky. Kayaked on towards the Sisters, but turned back at Darvis's Point due to an opposing wind for the return paddle.jonglew29/06/2018
