Cool Pic. Is that across the valley and across the river? Does mission falls form up fat, or does it have too much flow?
I have never seen them in winter...only in summer.
My dad lives in Polson 20 mins north of St. Ignatius, so I have him on a recon mission next chill.

I have checked Montanaice.com, but have not seen any pics of mission falls. Does anyone have any pics of mission falls outside of St. Ignatius?

Toprope shmoprope, looks like fun to me!
Question: Is it from a small drainage or just freeze - melt? I'm thinking freeze melt...
More mixed than ice due to thin (at best) ice. Not sure if it is a melt freeze cyle. my hunch is there is a slight seep with the help of a melt freeze cycle.
Of course currently it is more melt than...well it is just melt.
Would have to check the area out in summer or fall to see if it flows.

Wonderful work done out there. Thanks for your large investment of time and money! All of the stations make Beacon that much nicer of a climbing experience.
Now, I just hope no one decides to steal the nice rap rings you have added.
