Ice Report 1-1-16

FullSizeRender(1)With the lower than normal snow conditions, Miners Castle Road is still passable allowing easy access to the Lakeshore climbs.  Today we found Spicy conditions out on the lakeshore with high winds, big waves, and super wet conditions on Bridal Veil  Falls.  Until the falls completely freeze anticipate layer soaking conditions if the wind is blowing.

Some other seeps are finally coming in, including a seldom formed climb, Sliced Thinly along the Potato Chip Wall.  Continued cold temperature bodes well for forming more ice in the next week!
