Finally got away in October to the pinnacles and scored the best day ever. It was the last day of the ski season and i feared the worst but no, very few skiers. The hut was under booked with only four others whom we woke at 1am as we had walked up during the night. Plans of an early start were thwarted due to the sleep monster so we got away at about 8am.
A quick walk across the mountain and we set off on to the route that we think was 'The grand pinnacle" the snow was perfect and frozen as it is shaded until lat afternoon we made the top and the difference in snow conditions was amazing on the summit rocks it was melted mush, so we down climbed the same way we ascended.
