Nick Bullock and Al Powell have been out in Peru again this May. They were avalanched off their main objective, Jirishanca (6126m). With Bullock out of action, Powell managed a new line over 3 days on the North Face of Ulta (5875m) in the Cordillera Blanca, with Owen Samuel. It weighed in at ED2. Despite a "knackered shoulder", Bullock soloed a 1000m TD+/ED1 on the NW face of the same mountain with sections up to Scottish VI.
