Does anyone know if there are any climbable ice formations close to Lexington, KY?

Not sure if they have formed yet, but Hwy 34 on the way to Danville is usually pretty good. Also, there is might be some pretty hardcore stuff down by the KY river, off of US 68 in Mercer County. Some stuff around Frankfort as well.

The is a route near Richmond on ky river called Splashdown WI5 100+ ft. but i am going out wed night to do some good ole central indiana ice.

Would anyone want to go this weekend? I'd like to get in a couple of ice climbs down here before I go up north later this winter.

well i had given up on indiana ice, mainly because of work. i did go out and do a recon on some of the secret spots i know of , the stuff that was in was really short and all of the good stuff wasnt all the way down yet. it hasnt been that cold this last week so ive given up, well a buddy of mine called me and told me a formation that we had been looking at for a couple of years now was in. we had never seen it more than half way in before.needless to say we bagged the FA bobcat falls WI3+ 20-25ft of dead vertical and 10-12ft of slab. go out and check all of the refridgerater canyons you know of before the weekend ,it is going to warm up.

Hey littlefeller , The sultan and i did The Sore Nose and The Toilet Bowl a couple of weeks ago they were both fat. now that the baby is here i can go futher away get ahold of me if it gets cold again! found some more stuff way south.

check out www.m9ice.com for the latest on colorado ice. And buy a video, its rad.

The Ice season in the N.E. is really good this year, worth travelling for.

It's horrible here. I wouldn't reccomend it at all.

i don't know man the ice was pretty phat when i was out there
