21.4.14 - East Face of Aonach Dubh

This morning for a quick hit, Jamie and I trekked up to the Weeping Wall on the East face of Aonach Dubh.  We chose to climb Curving Crack (Severe) and Terrace Arete HS 4b.  Curving Crack is very pleasant and positive route, if lacking in the gear department and Terrace Arete is a great one move wonder single pitch route.  As sunny as it was today, it was still a bit on the cool side with winds gusting quite high at times.  Back on the Ben again tomorrow!

Jamie non too impressed with a discarded bad of dog shit we found whilst walking out.  IF YOUR DOG SHIT IT OUT, YOU WALK IT OUT.
