Are you climbing Beecroft?
That looks like a pad.

Field East? I think that's Reeds and Bonds at the back, with Lord and Lanes closer to the right . . .

Correct NNW, Wylds Craig is in there too. Could be wrong but I think Frenchmans Cap can be seen slightly to the left of Lanes Peak way off in the distance.

Over to you.

Had to zoom right in to realise that was the Denisons. Nice conditions.

From memory, I lost a water bottle bum-sliding back down this patch of snow. But what was I climbing on this cold, grey day?

It sort of reminds me of the way I went up Hyperion.

Funny, it did the exact opposite for me, the first four times. Somewhere between beautiful and reasonable until hitting the top, when the clouds descended, the wind blew up and I had to scarper quick smart.

Yes, that lovely chute on the Acropolis. Over to you, Luvverboy.

Is that right? Huh that's soft... it wasn't that bad! Although it was dark when we finally got there so maybe I just couldn't see how bad the scrub was....
