Matt Leggett being delicate with the ice
With a report that No. 6 Gully (IV, 4 ***) was just about still there, we thought we'd take advantage of possibly the last day before it all falls apart. We knew we'd better start early to catch the coldest part of the day, so Matt Leggett and I put on headtorches and set off into the dark mist. There are a couple of very thin pieces of neve covering rock, which just about held for us, but they definitely wouldn't have survived another day like Saturday just gone. The ice is thin in many places, you can hear the running water centimetres away!A great climb - there for us today - probably not there tomorrow!
