Skip to content Debs casts a mildly erotic shadow on the approach to Curved Ridge The climbing doesn’t always have to be hard to be fun – stunning views and situations half way up the route Roasting in the sun while slogging up to Crowberry Gap in thick porridge Looking north from the summit towards Ben Nevis, Carn Mor Dearg and Aonach Beag Great views all round – Stob na Doire left and Bidean nam Bian right The incomparable north east face of Ben Nevis in all its icy glory! (photo credit: Richard Corfield) The approach to Coire na Ciste catches the morning sun while the high north-west facing cliffs remain cold and icy The Gutter and The White Line are the two prominent ice lines on the left of the image on Goodeve’s Buttress. A very icy Raeburn’s Wall to the right. Debs finishes the long approach to The White Line. We began the route with the icefall ten metres to her right Plastic blue ice on pitch 1 – an excellent warm up! Setting off on the sustained second pitch with fifty metres of great ice to come Only the first half of the pitch was visible from the belay – my calves were burning by the top! The final groove came as a bit of a surprise – great moves on steep ice to cap off an excellent route!
