We thought we'd have time for one more route before flying home to Bristol that evening, but the approach to the Buchaille took much longer than expected on steep wet slabs coated in snow. So we turned back at the base of the route. A nice stretch in the mountains!
Our late night drive from Glasgow airport was rewarded with a wonderful dance of the northern lights across the horizon behind Fort William. Conditions the following morning in Coire an t'Sneachda weren't the best and after a rather lengthy wait, Dave and I nipped up the Haston Line, traversing far left to avoid the slow parties and finish straight up the Messenger.
