Winter Is Here

Last weekend I was climbing on sunny warm rocks, today I was stomping up the local ski hill in nearly knee deep snow. What a difference a week can make! I have talked to a friend who has already climbed ice somewhere in the Crystal Valley, so the game is on! As the snow continues to fall and temps stay low, the ice should come in pretty quickly. Usually by Christmas there’s a few climbs to hit, so we’ll see how it shapes up this year. Be sure to check out our ice climbing tips while you are getting your gear ready for the season.

Of course, there really isn’t that much snow and the ice is still marginal, so we’re hoping to squeeze in another weekend at the Creek. Come on sunshine!
