Mileage and Brocken Spectres

Charlotte's big day out from Alan Halewood on Vimeo.

Today I was back in Sneachda with Charlotte. She is an experienced summer climber but in order to move towards leading in winter wanted to build on a 5 day intro she has done by getting some mileage in... so lots of climbing was the order of the day!
8am meet in Aviemore, a steady walk into the Coire, round the corner and a good morning to Ibrahim and his team at the base of Fiacaill Couloir... 4 pitches of good climbing later and we are on top at 1110 in the sun. Next? Down the Goat Track and along to Red Gully... start looks a little leaner than last week but still a goer... a team above but lookes like they are being guided by someone competent so hopefully we wont have anything unpleasant knocked off onto us... 3 pitches. G'day to Gaz in front James behind. More sun, a little mist at the top and some time spent waving at ourselves in the glories of the clearest brocken spectres I've ever seen! 1240. Back down the Goat Track, the legs have one more route in them. Gaz is in Spiral, a team in The Runnel but its wide and they are on the left- very pleasant couple they are too. Charlotte's calves are feeling the pace now but we catch up another team ahead and take a break before taking the right hand finish out into the sun again. 4 pitches 1420. Lunch... sunbathe... relax.... bimble off... chat to Ron... look at many kilted skiers (kilts, skis and button tows... things that just don't mix!). Top day!! Well done Charlotte- plenty mileage today- we'll see what the legs have left in them tomorrow!

it, but also the change went against the conventional wisdom box that I needed.
