Success

Again it wasn't what it was supposed to be, we are talking about the weather again. The forecast had said light winds turning stronger by the end of the day. Well they did turn stronger by the end of the day but that was after starting at a good 40 - 50 mph.
To those who of you are not initiated in the wonder that is Scottish Winter climbing these are the typical conditions in which it is carried out.
If this was a clear day the view behind Greg would be across the Corrie, but it was a white out all day, which is the reason that this was the best shot of the day. But hey! when you have climbed the second hardest mixed climbing route in the world the shot is secondary to the elation that comes with success.

Edit; what I should have written as well is that this is only the third time its been climbed in the six years since its first ascent.
