In reply to DeanD: Cheers I actually climbed Green Gully on Ben Nevis Yesterday Saturday 13th with Dimitri we where the 3rd group on the route, perfect ice conditions and good climb, till I dropped an axe leading the final short little pitch below Cornice when the rope snagged on a quick draw (i was kicking myself). Made it up just, we also then had a difficult exit through the Cornice as we had to go right as i was down to one axe, well lead by Dimitri. Had a dreadful descent in the blizzard weather back to the north car park made the car at 9.00pm! I'll be posting a lost on the axe now in the gully.
