Chantilly, Moonlight and Snowline are fat. Two Low for Zero is rock covered in 
depth hoar for the first 10m at least. Unpleasant climbing and no decent gear 
without a fat pin rack and maybe some small cams. I gently bailed off the old 
bolt at around 15m as the icy-looking groove above was just dirt for the first 
few metres. 

I felt too young and too old to end my winter so early on such scruffy 
climbing:)
