<p>Weather: Cold, calm, overcast in the AM clearing in the PM. Temps around -10C through the day.
Observed approx 15-20cm new snow over a solid crust. We didn't see any sluffing during the climb.
Approach Ice (P1)
The initial pillar was aerated & good pro hard to find. FYI, a 70m rope does not make it to the big rap rock.
P2
We split the upper ice into 2 pitches utilizing the fixed anchor out right. The climbing & pro were superb. We climbed a dry line just L of centre.
P3
This looked fun but it was pretty wet. Since we were off to the Distillery for more adventure I didn't want a wet ass, so we bailed. </p>
