by UKC News Will W and Andy P established two possible new winter routes in Lochnagar on Saturday. There is a short report and photographs here. Pete MacPherson, Graeme Briffit and Mike Lates did the first winter ascent of Grand Dierdre Direct in Coire a Ghrunnda, Cuillin, Skye. This route is a VS summer route and the team thought VI,6 was a fair grade.
