Done in 7 pitches as per FRCC guide. Snow on ledges, rock's soaking wet throughout and verglased in places. I led P2, P3, P5, P6. Fell off the "slippery crack" on P5, got it clean on second attempt. Graham also had trouble following, so it wasn't just me. Didn't see any queues the guidebook warned about. Great route and a great day out!
