South Gully

Lena hiding behind a massive sun wheel

Lena's day to lead. Her first winter lead, grade III - South Gully

The corner pitch

We managed to find a way past the threatening cornice

Can you see somebody on the top section of Tower Ridge - past the Gap

Lena wanted to start leading in winter, so we walked up the Ben. Grade I - no, Grade II - no, she wanted to start at grade III. We found South Gully empty, and a perfect grade III to get started on. She led 3 pitches, including the steepest section. She let me top out :). Awesome.
