Sidewinder, Ben Nevis.   29/01/13

 

Had an amazing day climbing Sidewinder on Ben Nevis with Keith. This was luckily our day off between courses for PYB/Mountain Equipment/Cotswolds. Weather was perfect, as were conditions. The mountain was busy with visitors from the Winter Climbing Meet in Fort William. Our route on the Trident Buttress was very good climbing….could be a good first route of the grade for anyone who loves good, modern style climbing with amazing hooks, meaty lock offs and perfect pro. Rapid descent for afternoon coffee.
