Wendy on Dorsal Arete (II***)
Today was day 4 of Jagged Globe's Winter Mountaineering Course. The teams at Jagged Globe mixed up this morning, and I was teamed up with Wendy. Both teams headed for Dorsal Arete, to learn about leading, belay construction, and stance management.
High on Dorsal Arete, the weather still seemed to be holding out for us. We shared the route today with Jamie Bankhead from The Ice Factor.

Going down - Broad Gully
By the time it was time to go down, Broad Gully was still a safe descent. Some pockets of slab and loose snow had been building, but lots of the old hard neve was still visible.
South and Central Buttresses. Can you spot the 4/5 climbers. There is a team (Adam, Guy and John) high on Unicorn, and to the left on Inclination at the top of the Chimney? (Is this Matt and Ben?)
Everybody had an excellent day, and the weather wasn't as bad as expected.
