Awesome conditions on Ben Nevis…
Blue sky days in Scotland are, to be honest, few are far between! What luck then to climb with Jamie on two of the most iconic Scottish, winter routes in perhaps the most amazing conditions ever. Jamie explained a little ‘mixed climbing action’ was needed and I don’t like to disappoint!
Ben Nevis, with its awesome North face, provided an incredible ambiance and jaw dropping exposure. Whilst the crowds headed to the ice routes we managed to do the ‘double’ in the two days, nailing both Tower Ridge and NE Buttress in good time seeing barely a soul. Incredible. Its quite a challenge to climb two big mixed routes on the Ben in two days back to back. Nice one Jamie!
