The Runnel

With the West coast taking a beating at the moment by the weather, we descided to head East to the Gorms. I had forgotten how easy the walk into Sneachda was, and Dave and Huy were loving it to. In under and hour we were kitting up in a suprisingly pleasent corie with the Runnel in mind. Despite the rain, it was a warm, but the snow still firm with some excellent ice around. We finished up the steeper left hand exit, which is in the best condition I have climbed it in. All the buttresses are black, so no mixed routes to be had. This could all change though over the next couple of days.
