In reply to TobyA:
> (In reply to Robert Durran) Very cool. What did you find? Icefalls? Scottish style mixed? Mountaineering etc?
The potential was enormous. Loads of icefalls but anything catching the sun rapidly falling down. Almost alpine scale faces starting at sea level. Classic mountaineering to reach summits. Limitless potential for Scottish style mixed (though we thought the relatively compact granite might limit options for the less bold (ie us!).
We climbed a Scottish/Alpine style ice line at about V on the right side looking up the little fjord which the road crooses on a causeway onnthe way to Henningsvaer - an obvious line, but hidden from the road. I would be surprised if it hadn't been done before, but information is very hard to come by. It was a briiliant day's climbing!
I would love to go back a month earlier, but am unfortunately tied to school holidays.
