Getting Milder, but Cairngorms look good

Friday, 9 January 2009


Getting windy and mild for a short period. Check out Stormy Weather Charts which show unsettled but wintry weather for the high ground over Scotland in the next ten days. Space available on Winter Mountaineering courses next week,




Hi Alan,

We were out in the N Corries today; had Lochain to ourselves, and climbed Sidewinder in immaculate nick. But clouds were coming in as we left.

Earlier in the week we were in Glen Feshie, which has some good unknown routes; shot of James on Waterfall Gully attached. Off to Norway tomorrow!

Duncan

Thanks. Enjoy Norway and send some pics if you can.
Alan


Hi Alan,
Thanks for the web site, keeps me sane down here in Dorset. Here is some more photographic evidence of Welsh ice above, taken on Wednesday 7th Jan. The climber is James Thompson from Dorset, currently working at Plas y Brenin.
He has been out climbing most of this past week making early (0530) ascents of routes before heading back to work for the day and often squeezing something in early evening. Oh to be young again !!!!! Pictures are of the Screen III/IV, Clogwyn Y Geifr.
Thanks again
Mark

Thanks Mark. Tell PyB to give him some more time off work:-)) I'm sure JC or Doyley could fill in for him after breakfast for a while!
