Climbed the lower icefall direct at about IV *** for about 90m before the route proper traverses right to a chimney. Abbed off from there- it was all melting above. The icefall has thick ice and offers routes from III-V at the moment. 2 parties did March Hares and 1 on Mad Hatters which both looked complete. I have added a photo of the crag here. brianrunner - AltLd - 06/Mar/10 with martin stubbs partridge
