GBM - AltLd O/S - 06/Apr/13 with David B, Toby
Led pitch 2 - Start of the 2nd pitch felt pretty stiff for III - The climb had decent enough ice, with a reasonable amount of melt water from higher up covering ther surface.
Oh yeah - Thanks to the Dirty B*****d who had left a filled pair of boxers just above the 1st belay!!
