10m. No record of this having been done before, and I don't think the Victorian gents would have done it...Immediately left of the Logan Rock plaque is a protruding ear of granite. Gain this by under-clinging, and surmount it with less than grace. Follow the widening crack above to finish directly under the Logan Rock itself.

Modred, in William Mason's dramatic poem "Caractacus," addressing the characters Vellinus and Elidurus, says of the Logan Rock:

Thither, youths,
Turn your astonish'd eyes; behold yon huge
And unhewn sphere of living adamant,
Which, poised by magic, rests its central weight
On yonder pointed rock: firm as it seems,
Such is the strange and virtuous property,
It moves obsequious to the gentlest touch
Of him whose breast is pure; but to a traitor,
Tho’ ev’n a giant’s prowess nerv’d his arm,
It stands as fixt as Snowdon.
