Congrats to the boys on the NW face of Kennedy. Andy Cave and Mick Fowler repeated the north spur in 2000 (4th ascent, 1st Alpine style). They went to do the
route Cross and Bracey did but the weather was really bad for them.

Jack Tackle and Jack Roberts had two attempts on the
NW face. Their best effort ended 1500ft from the top
after 9 days with a portaledge, after Tackle dropped a
crampon, plus lots of bad weather.

In reply to Graham B: Hiya,
Just managed to bung a few of Richs pics on our work site too before I went on holiday: www.alpine-guides.com/News & Events.htm - will try & get a few more on the gallery at the end of the month.
PS looks like theres another El Nino kicking off here in Peru - V little snow all wet season & so dry on the hills

Cheers now, Al P
