Carlos & Paul got on the sharp end of the rope today and lead their first winter climb. We headed to the Mess of Pottage and between them they lead Jacobs Right Hand (I) in alternate pitches. The snow was bullet hard after last nights freeze and we enjoyed Scotland at its best with squeaky neve, blue skies, sunshine and cold crisp temperatures. The route was great as there is still lots of snow covering the gear placements so the boys had to work hard digging to find gear and belays - the true winter experience.
