Fluted Buttress Direct

Greg, James and Peter climbed Broken Gully Left hand, which they said was banked out and climbing easy. They then climbed Fluted Buttress Direct. Greg said that this was straight forward with ice on the lower sections and the 2 mixed steps were good fun. He commented that the Goat track was very icy and needed care. He also said that snow had fallen most of the day and it was due to snow a lot over night. Use your judgement carefully if you are heading out tomorrow as the great slab will also need a bit of care. We experienced some isolated pockets of slab yesterday under No 1 Buttress with little sluffs coming down the Vent.

Take care
