Alan,
What a stonking weekend! Aonach Mor fantastic on both Saturday and Sunday; remarkably empty today - was everyone on the Ben? Unfortunately, a bloke called Al from Edinburgh took a massive peel off the cornice above Maneater last night and both dislocated his shoulder and broke his right arm. However, we got him down and he was able to walk off by the Climbers' Col, so not too bad! Pictures of Aquafresh and White Shark attached. Taken on an Olympus Mu 600.

Ben Nevis was 'hoochin' with cars backed up to the traffic lights at the North Face Car Park. It's about time we started an effort to open up the access track for vehicles to the Allt a' Mhuilinn! Have any of you got the timne and enthusiasm for such a project?
Unfortunately the week ahead looks mild at the moment, so it will be high ridges in the rain maybe. Certainly a mild spell will strip the crags rather more than we want. Never mind, still a lot of winter left yet.

More pictures from my slide show in the Mountain Festival. on 21st February at Lime Tree. The prize draw on this evening will be some free lifts up the Ben Nevis track. All proceeds going to the Mountain Festival. Check it out folks.
