	Hasn't voted	Hey Radek. We tried the North Face of Kent, which is a beautiful face. Photos Here. The snow conditions were really awful with sugar over breakable crust over sugar. We slaved away but it just wouldn't go. One time I postholed up to my neck, and it wasn't even a tree well!!! Oh well, still had a nice time out on a beautiful day.

Nice getting out there and giving it a try Martin! Was it the right gully you intended?
