NWB - February Boulder of the Month

NWB news article about a new boulder found on Bardsey Island. It could be massive, it could be good, or it could just be a big patch of light coloured moss

Having regarded Enlli from many angles, I have never noticed such a boulder and would be 99% sure its a slab rather than a boulder. Still, folk win the lottery every week with much worse odds. Here's a better pic:

I reckon it's fairly big, but too slabby and ledgy to boulder safely. Rock quality might be arse too. Check it out with a sea kayak.
