Hi All
Was thinking of climbing this Monday.
Thinking of Stepped Ridge-wondered if anyone has been on it recently-
and what conditions are likely to be tomorrow.
Thanks in advance

Hi Bob

Climbed Right Parallel gully Sun am.

Buttresses are fairly stripped and not very wintery.

Gully's all with good solid neve but Central has an icy step at start and is broken in a couple of places. Left hand finish looks fine.

Plenty of neve over at Red Tarn with folks reporting good conditions.

In reply to Mountain Llama: hi Davey-thanks for update-thought buttresses would be a bit bare-but maybe still climable with
a bit of frozen turf ?
Cheers
Bob

In reply to bobpilgrem: think Red Tarn Cove. V-Corner night be a better option.

We did Rt Buttress Crack (easy 3) on Thursday. It was in pretty good condition, but I do not know how much was stripped by Fridays thaw.
