Not the Mirror Direct but Spiral Gully...!

With lighter winds and a good overnight frost being forecast Fi and I headed into climb the Mirror Direct ice fall in an empty Corrie an t-Sneachda. Unfortunately the 'Direct' was a lot thinner than on my last visit two weeks ago so Fi and I decided to give it a miss!
We then headed over to climb Spiral Gully which looked great and was in surprisingly good nick for mid May.

In the gully we were joined by another climber which turned out to be Colin W, who with Stephen R  I'd by chance photographed in March Hare Gully recently and had also sold a jacket to last year!  It was great to put a face to our correspondence and chat about mutual friends on our way back to the car ... :-)
