Striking while the weather's hot!. Over three unusually mild days, Julia and Mitesh joined us for two local winter alpine asents, and a relaxed explore of the Bealey Valley to finish off with. Snow conditions were diverse and sometimes slow, but this intreped duo took it all in their stride! Winter has been fickle this year, and there has been less snow than recent seasons. This will make for less snow cover on most alpine routes as we go into spring, especially once the warm Norwesters really get into gear. Hamish
