Vanishing Gully and The Curtain


 Ben and I had a late start on the Ben today, not leaving the car park until 9am. We intended to do some of the routes lower down so we didn't have to worry about starting so late. Ben was keen to do Vanishing Gully (V,5), a route i had already done, however I didn't share the same enthusiasm for it. Due to the late start there was a lack of options and no one else on our route so decided to go for it. While on it we were watching team after team on The Curtain.
So after climbing down 1934 route we headed over and climbed The Curtain. Both routes were in great condition and were a true pleasure to climb.
