Slab and overlap on right side of main face
When I did the First Ascent, i thought long and hard about a name and came up with The Flexible Brethren, named after the "Agile Brothers Pilkington" (after a trip to Skye earlier on in the year although this route is nothing like the In Pin!).
The Inaccessible Pinnacle was first climbed in 1880 by a pair of Lancashire brothers, Charles and Lawrence Pilkington. They were guided to the foot of the climb from Sligachan via Coruisk and Bealach Coire na Banachdich by a local shepherd called John Mackenzie. They climbed it by the east ridge, and had to throw down a lot of loose rock as they climbed.
