Hidden - AltLd rpt - 10/Apr/13
Chockstone move quite interesting in thin conditions, the rest of the climb stepped out but in good nick until just after the final slab when the snow and ice finished leaving a long steep final turf top out (not nice).

Great fun. Much of the snow was loose and un-bonded, gear where it was needed, the final ice slab had just enough on it to feel easy. I lead all pitches.

Excellent route through great scenery. Mostly easier than III - snow not consolidated lower down but upper-half turf frozen and good enough ice for stubby screws! Me P1 & P3. Gareth P2.

Chockstone thin but protectable and good incuts for crampons. Not much rock gear so ice screws & drive-ins useful higher up. Icy top section is really good!

Chockstone thinnish, lovely ice in gully. Not much rock gear high up so screws useful.

Led all, first two pitches pretty lean, second two well frozen but pretty run out, didn't get any gear in the last, needed warthogs and didn't have any. Well worth the two stars.

Terrible condition, first moves over chockstone hard as you have to place axes into bare loose scree, ice pitch virtually gone, final 20m clawing up unfrozen turf covered with scree! Fun day out though...

Poor conditions, but a good day out! Led easy snow slope (first ever lead).
Clay C - AltLd O/S - 24/Jan/10 with Jon H
Good kickable snow but main probs were at chockstone where snow was getting undermined and collapsible. Main challenge was leaving enough for the party of 2 following us.

Felt easy for the grade. The chockstone was straightforward but had loads of loose choss on top. Rest of the first two pitches was on easy angled, excellent quality snow. Top two pitches were fantastic, great thick, plastic ice which felt easy and secure. Ridiculously busy though, perhaps 5 parties simultaneously on the route!

nice climb, if too busy. good ice and snow. interesting short ice lines up right near the top
