Any ice forming?

Post by michaelarmand »

Anybody know of any potential ice or mixed climbs that could be coming in with the current weather? I am sure there is plenty out there, just not sure if there is anything I would find that would be worth the trip....

Any pictures?

Not cold enough yet. Plenty of water around, so I would think there should be some flows by Friday or Saturday. Just wet snow right now.

OK, I should clarify - no teasing me with pictures of ice out west! I already have a Utah trip planned for that....

Looking for some training ice in KY or OH....
I've been a gumby longer than you've been climbing.

you could also probably find some near Ironton, ohio as well. the rock is similar to hocking hills (basically a shorter version of the red)
