Round 1

Myself and Jon are Back in BC, we left this morning at 5.30am to try a route on the West Face of London Tower. We had already sashed our haul bag and ledge at the base of the route the day before, so this morning we got suck straight into the climbing.

As it turned out we decided to descend due to the fact the rock was poor in places, with loose gravel and verglassed rock first thing this morning.

The route quickly turned into a waterfall as all of the snow patches above melted down on us. We where soaked through, as was all our gear. So there was no point in battling on.

We will try and dry out our gear tomorrow and come up with a new climbing plan, if the weather allows.
