It looks as if we're in for a great series of days right through Sunday afternoon, and with one possible exception straight into next week. There are no bugs to speak of, you can almost see the moisture being wicked off the cliffs and the roads are already dry. Plan your weekend such that you can be outside and enjoy yourselves as much as possible. Heck, it doesn't get a whole lot better than this.
Oh yeah - couple of asides:
1) Sunday is Easter so I hope that all of you enjoy the day in whatever form is appropriate to you.
2) I would avoid the Ethereal Buttress area until the blocks directly above it are trundled. When you see all the trees down in that area you'll understand what I mean!
Ice Conditions Report:
Selected Ice Conditions effective February 26, 2026
The '26 ice season has been quite good. Sure there are places where it didn't really happen - Snot Rocket, Machine, etc. But the classics are all in and overall still in great shape. AND we didn't get one of those early-winter warm-up events that put a hard reset on the season. We are scheduled for a bit of a warmup through Sunday, and that should be a good thing. Frankly we need to get some flow happening for a refresh before it gets cold again. And it will. After all, it ain't spring yet!

Repentance

Climbing is a very dangerous sport. You can get hurt or even kill yourself. When you go climbing, you do so of your own free will. Everything on this site is to be taken with a grain of salt. Don't blame us if you get up some totally heinous route, in over your head and fall and hurt yourself.
