On Ben Lui (Ben Laoigh). 28 March 2010 . Approached from Glen Cononish and ascended by the corrie to the north of Coire Gaothach. Climbers: Matt Flood, Sabine Nolte, Beverly Bain, David Docherty.
@pikeflyfisherma. We didn't need any gear. It was a straightforward Grade I - soft snow all the way. We just had hiking crampons and a single axe each. Great fun, you'll enjoy it!
did you use ropes on any section of the climb ?im interested in doing this when the snow comes back but would prefer to free climb/solo it, or would it be worth carrying a 50 meter rope and a few nuts and slings ?
