Alan,
A couple of photos of Poachers falls climbed in lean conditions on Saturday. Photo 52 shows the route from below. Photo 55 shows the top pitch and photo 57 shows the bay / groove above the second steep ice fall. Paul and I stayed at the the Aultguish Inn above Garve: both the route and the bunk house were absolutely spot on! A fabulous excursion to the north west. Great site: full of useful reckoning.
Regards, Charles Pickles.

Thanks Charles. Looks pretty thick to me. Well done.



Alan,

Couple of days ago, NE Ridge of Aonach Beag; no-one on the whole mountain. Yesterday, Hidden Gully on Stob Coire nam Beith; no-one on the whole mountain. Today, Crowberry Gully; blue skies, hard neve, and empty! Saw two teams on Curved Ridge, but apart from that, the mountain was bare....

Is it me?!

Duncan Francis

It's not for the want of trying Duncan. Maybe people do not believe the weblog. Apparently even Wales has snow. Must be playing havoc with the sale of chalk balls!
