4th Jan - Mountaineering in Glencoe

Day of trip to Glencoe with Crazy-horse. Conditions were clear, ice great and snow in good condition.

We went up to the Lost Valley buttress (2hr walk-in) and did Right-hand Gully (150m, II). This was a long-walk in, then steep snowy scramble before one roped pitch at the top and over the cornice. Great views from the top on the south-side. Great to be back on the ice. The total ascent was just over 1,000m - great day.
