"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Great dayMartin Siddles and I had a fantastic late summer day on little Mt. Wintour (2700m). We ascended the faint East Ridge to the South Ridge then onto the summit; mostly moderate scrambling with one 30 metre pitch of 5.4 slab just below the summit. Less than 8 hours car to car. Great weather, great fun, recommended for a fun and short day of scree and exposure.
