Doctors Choice

Grade IV
:: Weather Conditions
Snowy. Freezing below foot of coire floor
:: Climbing Conditions
Remarkable for the time of year with considerable build up of snow and ice. Alladins couloir already well banked up and skiable !
Several parties out on routes on the Mess of Pottage and Flutted buttress.
Forzen vegetation a bit suspect in places but with colder weather it will be getting better
