@@troytimmons Is the season always that short up there? That’s how it was here in NC this year. Hoping to get out to Hyalite next winter tho. The routes look amazing
yep, spot on murray. i like to have a non toothed device on top to catch a fall and if it slips (above a few kn) then the micro would catch with the teeth at a lower force. this setup does become a little sketchy on a frozen rope so ymmv
I LIKE YOUR STYLE AND FOR THAT I WILL SHARE WITH YOU THE CLIMBING HACKS THAT I MOST LIKE - NOT TO TEACH YOU ONLY TO SHARE WITH A COOL CLIMBIER - CHECK THE FOLLOWING COMMENTS
You foot stance is nice and wide, but you place your ice axes to the left and ride side of your body, so ur body is forming an H. This messes up ur balance when moving ur feet up. Instead, you want your ice axes in almost a vertical line above your head so that ur body is forming an A. Place ur axes where u want ur body to go on the next foot move, then move ur feet up so that ur body is centered below the axes and ur feet are to the left and right of them. This will improve ur balance and allow you to put more weight on your feet, and work ur arms way less.
thank you for the feedback, i read gadds book and the A frame method you mentioned is definitely the most efficient way to move on a perfect sheet of ice. My thought process while climbing this extremely 3d ice was to use as many existing pick holes as possible. But on rewatch, i see i missed quite a few where i could have maintained a better A frame and using existing holes. I blame my rock climbing background!

sometimes 2-3 weeks on a really good year! just depends on temps and sunshine
thank you for the video!

Moving to Kalispell in a couple months, can’t wait!
hope you made it out this season!

It appears to be a camp lift followed by a micro traxion
