Coire an Lochain


Jason and I headed into Coire an Lochain today and climbed the Milky Way (II/III). We have had quite a bit of snow overnight and it was snowing all day so we had to work hard cleaning the route and making safe avalanche decisions on the approach and descent. It was definitely a day for goggles with high winds and snowfall making blizzard conditions on the tops. A proper Scottish winter day out, great fun! We were told that Y Gully avalanched today and there is more snow due tonight.
