Intro To Snow And Ice - Dorsal Arete

Another day at the office - some great Scottish weather...

This week I'm with Claire on an Intro to Snow and Ice climbing course. We started by going to Glencoe and getting onto Dorsal Arete, but so did lots of other groups - so it was a busy sociable rope tangled day!

Here is Claire approaching the next belay.. Thw weather has closed in and vis had gone right down..

The crouds started to converge. Claire is in the middle of the photo in the blue jacket...

This is the top of the route. 3 teams here close together. All good fun. Another awesome day. A hard first day for Claire, the next 4 will be a little easier - promise !!!
