Ironically, it was during an attempt to clean loose rock off Fingers Ridge.

Indeed Andy and good to know that they came away with, what are now established to be, not serious injuries.

In reply to Kimberley: BBC Highlands Twitter Feed seems to be reporting a hand injury to a climber in descent from Pygmy Ridge today as well?
