Stunning leading by Dave in difficult conditions. Unconsolidated in parts & several mini storms. Topped out after midnight. Happy to have made top of such a route!

Ondrej lead cruxes. Moved together on the rest and finished up Zero Gully. Under quite a bit of powder with no useful ice at all. Probably V 5 today and harder than both the adjacent gullies but also probably ****!

deep powder with no neve or ice to be seen, very slow progress with little gear so retreated. Better to wait till later in the season

Far more snow than last time. Felt trickier overall as some of the snow was a bit cruddy and also because I think I picked a harder variation to get to the top of the initial buttress. Finished up Zero Gully again as the upper buttress was plastered.

Amazing and Epic day out. Fairly good conditions but some hard rock sections to overcome. Topped out at 2:15am and spent night in the shelter on the Ben.

Guided- crampon popped and banged chest hard against rock-thought I'd pranged a rib so rather painful after that!! Did the finish which does not drop into Zero gully.

Snow was a bit thin low down but plenty higher up. Finished up Zero Gully due to it being late. Topped out into a beautiful sunset at around 7pm.

An excellent day out, which culminated in Tommy getting lost on the golf course, the car being towed from the golf course by the police to get it started, and meeting Mark on the back of Mungo the Magnificent's enormous BMW motorbike at the roundabout in the Fort.

My first winter route of any note. Ironic since it required the full gamut of rock climbing moves - layback, jamming, mantles and rock-overs. Got off route at one point ending up in an steep ice gully on the West side - rope jammed round blind corner, Colin not amused! Great route.
