A nice warm-up of 4 pitches of climbing on L'index with Rob and Steve on day 1 in Chamonix. Lovely little route, not much more to add! Thanks to Rob W-M for some of these photos.

Lake District
Snowfall & Thelkeld
Some pretty incredible conditions up in the Lake District over the weekend. Extensive snowfall and clear sunshine had left the hills covered in great powdery drifts. Totally out of condition for climbing mind, although it didn't stop Will & Harry from backing off of a route or two.
Coire an Lochain, Cairngorms
Milky Way Variants
Another intense winter day ended in adventurous fashion when I wandered off route on Pitch 3 of Milky Way in Coire an Lochain (Cairngorm) up something decidedly more challenging. Much fear, swearing and flailing later and I was on the top, but the gear retrieval on abseil and epic descent nav pushed the finish well into the darkness.
