Were going to have a look at the Black Ladders but didn't get up till 8 and didn't get out of Helyg till 10, so decided to instead wander up to Cwm Lloer. Moonflower wasn't in but this was, just about! The ice had been battered by the thaw but wasn't melting any more. It was however fairly thin on the initial section, which was effectively a pillar. Bridged out to the rock out left a few times towards the bottom, which was fun. The ice was generally quite hard and brittle despite the mild temperatures. Got two screws in around the little rest at just above half height. The top out was a gripper as the ice ended abruptly and there was no solid turf as the ground was boggy. Managed to pull up on one axe hooked on a bit of rock under the bog and the other planted in semifrozen bog. V 5 in these conditions. Su did well to second this but popped off a couple of times. Placed her first two screws in the belay at the bottom Finished with a calf burn up Broad Gully, which provided a short ice step about half way up where Su could practice placements a bit.
