The late good weather spell out west seems to have just one day left, what else is there but to head for November's GO-TO venue (as per 2011-12-13) in the hope that the sun has burnt it off.
Some hope.....
Fellside sentinel
Looking promising!
PM pimps his ride on this Solid Severe
(once again the new guide gives more sensible grades!)
Methera follows a line up the right above the shadow
Surprised to be in company
Lake District debutantes all the way from the Wye Valley
Brought a spare rope up for abbing off
Thought better of it, easier to down climb the mod
A word to the Wye's
This aint no limestone......!!
By 2pm the photons were failing in their duty to burn it off....
AT realises that he's never dovered with this route up the arete before
Gotta be done!
Postscript - followed NB on this route 2012
Worthwhile
Big mountain VDiff feel with tough start - major contrast with amenable friendly slabby severes
The MVS4b pips up the left through the little roof
Did in 2 pitches for added sport
Seemed rude not to
Love it
