After a winter spent in Scotland and Wales so far this ice cragging is taking a bit of getting used to - the walk in today was 5 minutes long!! That meant we did not need to have breakfast until 8:00am!!
Today we headed to the Ozzimosis crag and as the snow fell lightly all day and with temperatures a steady -5c we climbed Ozzimosis (WI4) which was pretty brittle, Presangen (WI 4), Klassik 4 (WI 3). Having seconded 8 routes over the last two days Paul then lead Svada (WI2). Paul did my 5 day learn to lead course in the Cairngorms last December so put his new skills to good use. (Water Ice 2 is equivalent to Scottish grade 3 so he did well). Another great day out.
