Tons to go for

Alan,

Deep Cut Chimney on Stob Coire nam Beith today...... in perfect nick, and all to ourselves. Great route, and fantastic views from the top, including the clag on the Ben...... To be fair, we did see another pair on Central Gully on our way down, but as they were only half way up at quarter to five, hope that they had their headtorches!

Hi Alan.

Just had a great day on Golden Oldie. Had the whole face to ourselves great conditions best I have seen over there for ages. Picture enclosed. If you need a good quiet gr 3 spare Rib gully looks excellent at the moment loads of ice in it and all the buttresses are well rhymed and frozen.

Also The Curtain and Italian R-Hand on Nevis were climbed today. The Curtain was a little 'thin' but still okay. The medium-term weather looks set to continue cold until at least the start of April if not more.
