Today I was back out with John who has
recently fell in love with Buachaille Etive Mor but more specifically
Rannoch Wall. After climbing Curved Ridge last week, he was really
keen to climb a route that breaks through the steep wall. As the sun
was shining and the routes were dry, we opted for January Jigsaw
(Severe) which gives 4 great pitches of exposed climbing which
becomes more and more exciting as you get higher. It was bitterly
cold today so we didn't really want to be hanging around so after we
topped out we descended down Curved Ridge and back to the bags. We
had, what seemed like, the whole mountain to ourselves except one
team was on their way up Curved Ridge as we were leaving. Another
fantastic day with John who now has seen lots of other routes he
wants to climb on the mountain. Watch this space to see what we get
up to next time.
