Steall Waterfall: Probably my best climbing day ever...

Just got back from climbing Steall Falls in Glen Nevis, Scotland. It's Scottish Grade III-ish and between 120 - 180meters of pure water ice up one of the most scenic waterfalls in the world (it even appeared briefly in Harry Potter I think...). The climbing was incredible and I felt very at home racing up the ice on my lead pitches - and soloing bits and pieces too! Such a brilliant day! The diabetes was easier to manage than I thought with the problems of eating on an ice route - but I'll probably post a full write up when I'm not so utterly shattered!
