The Black Dike, The North East's classic alpine ice route. A great day out with Jerry Gale
The route was a little bony as NH had 3" of
rain last month that affected allot of the
ice routes
Jerry on pitch 2, the crux.
Pitch 3 actually had ice to climb, nice....
Jerry Gale and I at the top of the route, it was truly an alpine day with
poor visibility, strong winds and spindrift.
Couldn't be a better alpine day !
