Thanks, Ryle. Glad to see you're hanging around again too! Mount Kenya has exposure almost like desert towers, but in an alpine setting with solid rock. I can't ask for anything more.

As a matter of interest, here and here you can see the how dramatically different the Diamond Couloir looks in the July-to-September period after some snowfall.
