2013 The Captain 7A Boulder | worked Before 1st Jun 2013
First ascent.

…its a really cool prow - about 7A 4 or 5 metres long and i think it should be called "the captain" as it looks a bit like a large bulbous phallus when viewed end on! its about 50m to the right of Stottie, if you walk along the path on the top of Froggatt then go right down a small path about 50m before that boulder with a crack and a polished foothold on it(the one on the left of the path) just drop over the edge by about 10m and walk to the right and you should see it or walk about 50m right from Stottie if you know where that is.... it starts way low and left sharing the very first decent flake and finishes right at the tip then rocks rightwards around the backside. take a brush as it may be a little scrittly still and enjoy...a peak classic in the making...
