NC Gully - Adventure Peaks Meets Jagged Globe

Again with Radim and James, working for Adventure Peaks, we head into Stob Coire nan Lochan. The intention is to build on the teaching from yesterday when they were learinng to lead. NC gully is a great II** route but already lots of the classic lines have people on. James sets off leading the first pitch and belays shown in the first photo. Radim is super keen to lead the next. James gets the steep central section and pulls it out of the bag. The gully gets busy, Rob Wills (also Adventure Peaks) has his team there and Adele Pennington (Jagged Globe) has her team. Wow, it seems to be the most sociable place on the West coast.

At the top James describes the climb as 'epic'. Well done everybody, unfortunately most people have to drive home, just as the snow and weather improve.


Tomorrow I'll be off to Jagged Globe.
