Two-step on Ben nevis
February 10, 2012 at 6:47 PM
Nice climbing today on soft but plentiful ice on Two Step corner on Ben Nevis. Great way to end the week for Stuart. Tania and Harken came along for the ride as well so it was quite sociable.
In general the ice is hanging in well high up on the Ben and the main big ice routes will all be fine this weekend. Plenty to go at with the Ciste crags having good ice, two step and thompsons are good. Cascades and upper cascades as well as White Line all ok. Hadrians and point 5 will be fine as well as smith's and Tower Scoop. Orion will be a bit too thin at a guess.
The buttresses are very black and mixed climbing is not really on at the moment.
Off this weekend so some relaxing and guitar playing for me!
Starting up the crux pitch.
