Ben Nevis 21 Mar 13
On Thursday Russell and I walked into the N face of the Ben with the intention of doing Tower Ridge, however before we even seen the ridge it was pretty clear that the wind was far too strong for going up on such a high and exposed route. after pottering about and exploring various ideas we decided to have a crack at a long pitch low down on the barrier that extends North from the CIC hut.
