A snowy scene

25th January 2007

Quite a few people were making the most of the climbing conditions in the Northern Corries today. Here’s Alladdin’s Buttress and the Trident Gullies to the right; you can just about make out a few climbers in amongst the crags and gullies.
This is today’s pit on an Easterly aspect. Lots of graupel around; over a metre here and this top layer sheared off very easily on a softer layer beneath.
No this isn’t a scene from the 70’s! Doesen’t the ski area look great!
