Invernookie, Cairngorms




Paul, Carlos and I headed back into Sneachda today and climbed Invernookie (III,4). The route had plenty of fresh snow on it and some nice ice and patches of frozen turf. There was also a North Wales team on The Seam alongside us and several other teams out in the Corrie. We could also see across to Savage Slit which has been climbed every day for the last 3 days. It was a beautiful morning and the clouds came over and the wind picked up as the day went on. The freezing level was below the summits contrary to the forecast and it had been very cold overnight with a slight temperature inversion.
