Great climbing but Nil visibility

A lot windier and more wintry than expected today with challenging navigation (white out) into our climb, on the plateau and on the way back out again! I was guiding Mark today when Fi and Alan followed us up Goat Track gully once the belays had been excavated! It was bitterly cold with a strong icy up draught though the climbing conditions were really superb on rimed up neve and great ice. The only other climb we could actually see was Red Gully and that looked superb too and quite banked on the first ice pitch. It was snowing heavily around Aviemore this evening...
