Glen Coe gives a wealth of winter climbing opportunities of all grades and styles, something indeed for everyone. The cliffs are also, in the main, easily accessible which means they can become very popular. This area also includes the winter climbs on the mountains south of Glen Coe in Glen Etive, and on hills more southerly still but north of the A85 Oban road (notably Ben Cruachan). Also included are the hills of Appin and Ballachuilish, the dry tooling of Ballachuilish bridge, and the winter climbs in Ardgour (notably Garbh Bheinn).
Friends turned up late on the Saturday night and with a good forecast for Sunday we chose coire nan Tullich for our ascent. We enjoyed improving our axe and crampons skills on the exposed ridges to the left and right of the gully. On reaching the top we walked around to stob na Doire before descending via the NW flank and followed the river out to the road.
