Today we took Avi winter climbing high on the East face of Aonach Mor to get out of the wind and look for a route to push his grade. We climbed Morwind (a hard III) in four pitches – Morwind was in reasonable condition, with some helpful ice and good turf under the snow. Avi had a great day and really enjoyed the challenge of the route and the conditions. We just need a decent freeze now to consolidate some of the slushy snow lower down and things will be great up here.
A few pics follow.
