Somewhere behind the rainbow there is a land of untouched, wintry steepness. It is not easy to get there as deep snow ...
... and icy streams make access difficult.
On Saturday Brian and I went...
... and climbed a line at IV,5 with too much heather and unconsolidated snow for stars...
... but with great situations and solitude.
A few tricky moves on three of the five pitches...
... but also some deep snow snorkeling.
Here the final steepening to the crest,
...more powder to the summit...
... and a bumslide back to the rucksacks.

No chance hiding the truth when an anonymous Miss Marple is on the case!
