Grey Mare's Tail

Saturday, 9 January 2010


Alan

Here are some shots of the Grey Mares Tail which I climbed yesterday.
Get them on your website then watch the stampede......
Stunning almost alpine conditions. The route is in superb condition with fat ice on both left and right hand lines (the central bit is still running water). The ice is plentiful and mainly solid with just a few patches of crud. On all the steep bits the ice is bomber just when you need.
Blue skies, crisp, cold and clear. A couple of parties up from the Lakes and all very civilised.
Roads from Edinburgh to Moffat via Peebles are treacherous. Best to go down the M74 to Moffat then approach from the south.

Hope to see you soon.

Best

Cliff
