Planning an upcoming Culm visit and thinking about a (long overdue) visit to Hippa Rock. Has anyone climbed there recently and can report back on the state of the belay stakes (if they still exist - most recent logs of the routes don't sound great in this regard)? 

Also, would going in via Stanbury Mouth, doing a couple of routes on Hippa Rock and getting back out via Mainsail on High Sharpnose be realistic  within the tide window.  Or better perhaps to combine Mainsail with routes on either Oldwall's Point or Moped Zawn? 

Cheers

Mainsail was at Speke’s Mill… and is no more, apparently.

Well spotted Dave, my mistake - I meant escaping out up Half-Mast (HS 4a) on Higher Sharpnose Point (knew it was something nautical!).  

Cheers
