Dorsal Arete - Glen Coe

Sunday, 15 February 2009


Alan,

Hope triumphd over experience today, and we went up into Stob Coire nan Lochan, even though it was 8 degrees in the Coe. Tried Ordinary Route, but it was just dripping rock and moss. SC Gully was empty of ice, and SC Gully was just wet sugar. Finished up on a mass solo of Dorsal Arete, along with the rest of those daft enough to venture up there! Boomerang Gully was the only other route being climbed.

Alan,

Think that was us on Boomerang. We actually went up the arete (as did another group behind us) the snow in the gully was very dodgy and unconsolidated. Definitely a day for ridges rather than gullys.
