‘California Dreamin’ ?

11th February 2013

(Above) Coire Chriochairein from Sron Ghoire. ‘Meggie was quite busy today with a mix of winter mountaineers, climber and instructional groups. Large group visible bottom left of the photo.

(Above) Looking towards The Window from Sron a Ghoire. Bitterly cold in the wind today but very clear light and welcome sunshine.

(Above) Looking towards The Pipes. Two pairs of climbers close to topping out on a couple of routes.

Really good snow-ice wherever the wind has scoured the surface but unstable windslab lurks in sheltered areas. Small avalanche triggered around lunchtime close to where this photo was taken from. Blue skies, sunshine, hard neve….not quite ‘California Dreamin’ but easy to lose concentration and not be aware of objective hazard from the snow.
