The most recent logged ascent of Ben Lui Central Gully was last Friday and was described as 'good hard neve from 800m' which sounds good to me. So I'm considering asking my better half for another day away (I went up The Black Spout on Lochnagar on Sunday there, which was awesome).

Is anyone able to tell me please if Central Gully is still in condition? I'd hate to get there to find the snow level is much further up than last Friday.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Fantastic! 😀

I hope you have a great day 👍 Please let us know how you got on 🙂

I messaged the person who went up last Friday and they replied saying there was deep enough snow then so could still be good now. But naturally they weren't making any promises on that. 

Enjoy!
