Go East - Wettness in the west

Incessant rain, warm temperatures prompted an early start and drive to the Cairngorms. We were greeted in Corrie an Sneachea by a little bit of blue skies and buttresses white. Paul K, Simon P, Paul S & Ronnie had our MI youth group for a days climbing before the Uber thaw.
All managed a good route and the thaw followed us up the crag. Whiteness disappeared as we climbed.

This is the down side to Scottish winter as a lot has now stripped and the continuing rain and very mild temperatures may cause a major dipletion of the snow pack. Will report back later in the week.
