- The ice was great until the 6th pitch. In fact the 5th pitch was the highlight of the day.
The 6th pitch looked beautiful from far but was far from being safe, the ice was taking in pick placements deep however it was too soft to hold screws so a retreat was the safest move that day.
it looks harder than a grade 5. Great job.
how do you like your Mammut thin hardshell? Was looking for one to climb ice, since Arcteryx Alpha fl is discounted. I have the same gloves, ice tool and harness, its like watching myself climb🤣
The jacket is great. Super thin and compact. I was initially concerned about durability but after two seasons has yet to show any wear and tear. Mind you, I've been primarily climbing ice! Not squeezing through rocky chimneys, yet!
Haha, last season I was climbing with the buddy who had the same colored jacket and pants. Its the closest I got to having a twin sibling!
Saw some of your videos, where's Seneca?
It's in WV, a trad playground. I initially tried the jacket on and was worried about its durability since it is so thin. glad to hear you like it @@m10_g0at
Hello Ian
I love your movies and your joy of climbing.
It's the same for me - as you can see on my channel.
I've noticed that you also love taking risks - which I do too. However, my climbing partner always brings me back down to earth - fortunately. Very good decision not to continue climbing. Well done. Were you able to do an Abalakov?
Hey, thx for the insight. Busy at work this week but will get back to you!
You make a good point. I was taught that way as well by the alpine club of Canada when I first got into ice climbing.
However, over the years I have come to realize, there are other variables that hinder placing the second screw close to the first - ice quality being one, rest spots being another.
Thx again.
Another question. Are you aware that you are screwing the second screw in far too late and would thus have a bottom fall?
I can't understand whether you are doing this consciously and just like to climb solo. I've also noticed this in other films - I don't have a problem with it if you do it that way - otherwise it would be negligent of us not to point it out to you :-))

Hehe, love them. Buying them in bulk now. They're so reasonable 🙂

Yep, that season was good for Cody ice. Did you go?
