Coutley Spout

Roger Chaldecott, Rich Maywhort, Steve Stout and I headed over there early this morning. We all had commitments at 9am like work and meetings so an early start it was!

Conditions where good, less ice than the time I was on it back in January at the beginning of the melt but also less water!

The Bottom pitch is superb, protectable via rock gear on the left and ice screws.

Second pitch is still a little wet but the rest is just perfect with the top pitch having the best conditions.
