This is my shortest post. Why? because i couldnt see a thing from start to finish so theres not much to report. Visability was the worst ive experienced. I didnt want to waste the opportunity but really shouldnt have bothered as it was not an enjoyable hike. Very wet sideways sheeting rain even went through the goretex, howling gales and freezing summit temperatures were anything but fun. A steeper than expected ridge was tricky even with the crampons. I was amazed to pass 3 fellow hikers on my decent but i dont think they noticed me due to 10ft visability. Hill bagged but I wont be attempting many others in this kind of weather!
