Aonach Mor

Martin and I have been on Aonach Mor today refreshing a few winter skills prior to four days of mountaineering here in Lochaber.

The weather has been excellent again, with temperatures hovering just below freezing in the shade of the north facing corries.

Aonach Mor's East Face was busy again with climbers noted in the "twins area", which seemed to be holding good ice.

Over on Ben Nevis, Nick Carter (Alpha Mountaineering), climbed 'Moonwalk' IV on the Little Brenva Face, reporting good conditions.

Further north Ian and Rachel also made a traverse of the Cuillin Ridge on Skye.

Again the weather looks set to continue until the onset of more unsettled conditions on thursday..
