In reply to Ian breslin:
I was up there on Friday 20th and two teams climbed Kipling Groove, one pair of gents around lunchtime and a three who started up it at about 2pm and were still on the upper traverse at about 6pm when I looked up from the valley floor. We crossed it twice, finishing up the last few metres of it the second time. I chatted with both teams so if you let me know which it was (or time of day) I may be able to track them down.
Awesome effort leading that in 1959!
