We did Tower Ridge which was in great condition, dry rock gave fast gear and the crest and all the ledges were covered in hard snow or ice. We also had the route to ourselves as a bonus!
Looking over Carn Dearg
Tower Ridge
Smiths Route
Whilst there was not loads of routes in, there was some looking good and getting climbed. Today Smiths Route, Indicator Wall, Ledge Route, Right Central and Tower Scoop were all climbed and looking good. Also Cascade, Comb Gully, Thompsons Route, Green Gully and possibly Two Step Corner will all have been climbable. As well as these all the easy gullies were good with hard snow.
Another cold day coming should hopefully dry up any of the dripping ice and make whats there really good. Routes such as Hadrians Wall were looking too thin, and Point 5 has a big section missing with some water still running down it.
