Scotland is known for its bold winter climbing, but no matter how many photos you see, they will never portray the fearsome climbing
as well as this Weekend Whipper. This GoPro footage is from a climber attempting Head Hunter, a 60 meter Scottish VI, 6 covered in a
thin dusting of ice and snow. Without any pro beneath him, this climber slips, and goes for one gnarly fall!
This whipper made the Top 10 Weekend Whippers of 2015, screeching in at #2.
