Hi, there! Cairngorm - which crag , other than Coire An T- Sneachda,  would be recommend over the next few days with the strong west/ southwesterly wind? 
many thanks 

Wolfgang

Climbing conditions and avalanche forecast aside, Cha-no is east facing and will be sheltered from westerlies if you can brave the wind enough to make it there.

Vers many thanks, Luca. Can you maybe  share a Topo of the crag please - we only have the 2011 guidebook.

Very many thanks, Luca. Can you maybe share a topo - we only have the 2011 cicerone guidebook, where the crag is not covered.

It's in the new Cicerone guide.

Ooh, thanks, apologies, I didn't know that. I paid for the SMC one and have an ancient one from some magazine (maybe Climber) when the crag first popped up.
