The West




I worked Saturday in the West for Alan Kimber. Chris and i spent the morning in the Ice Factor where conditions were predictable and then we spent the afternoon on Curved Ridge on the Buachaille. There is alot more snow in the West compared to the East and Curved Ridge had a very alpine feel to it. The scrambly sections were dry and in between deep wet snow which firmed up around Crowberry Tower. With the good snow cover in Glencoe, The Ben and Aonach Mor, cooler weather should bring good spring climbing conditions.
