It was an early start, but happy faces, nonetheless...

...things were looking good...

...even better as we started the approach.

On with the crampons.

Views were nice enough...

...well I thought so... ...so I took loads of shots! Stopped for a bite to et at the base of Parsley Fern Gully (Grade I/II)

Just about tostart...

...when I had to take another scenic photo... So we climbed up some average ice etc... ...in an upwards direction...
Nice ice umbrellas... ...gave us something to look at, as we neared the top... ...to a bit of cloud... ...luckily, Marek had his bright yellow camera cover on, so we could see where he was!!
At the top, and more pretty views ...Haslam in the way... ...now Marek in the way!! Snowdon (just in case you didn't know!
And yet more beautiful scenery. On the descent we checked out next year's... ...possibilities... ... and the...
...the obligatory team photo. A last look at the route... ... ...and this...
     
...is how a pair of Koflach plastics fell to bits!! More to come... ...watch this space... ...and this one.
