- Earlier UKC Report: Spray On
We met up with Tim whilst he was working on a Mountain Hardwear meet in the ice climbing Mecca of Cogne in Italy. Tim was giving his ice climbing wisdom to the lucky members of the Mountain Hardwear Academy, which is a program in which members of the public apply to join the 'Academy' and get training and advice in all different aspects of climbing from Alpinism to sport climbing.
Tim was enthusing about Spray On... Top and gave us all the details. Given the way he made short work of onsighting the crux M11 pitch of the Cogne mixed classic Jedi Master, we think his gradings for Spray On... Top are probably pretty spot on.
Route Information:
Spray On... Top!
200m - 230m. The first pitch may be underground, this depends on the prevailing snow and ice conditions
