Perfect Choice


Today I was kick starting my next winter stint with a trip over to the Cairngorms with Kenny. We met up with Andy, Kennys client, aswell for a very sociable day. It was disgusting weather leaving Fort William at 6am but as we got further East it was clearing up nicely. On arrival to the crag it was blue skies and a cold wind. We firstly climbed The Message (IV,6), topped out at 1pm, nipped back down and then climbed the Direct Start (IV,5) to Hidden Chimney (III). Many other teams out today on routes like Fingers Ridge, Jacobs Ladder, Original Route (I think), The Runnel and a few others. Snow was falling quite heavily as we were driving back to Fort William.
