iceslut Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Climb: southfork ice, wyoming-high on boulder, mean green, broken hearts Date of Climb: 2/3/2006 Trip Report: even though we have been having some fun on gorge ice as of late, i jetted down to wyoming and met my old montana friends (chris & brice) on the southfork of the shoshone. three days of climbing found us on some of the best routes i have ever climbed. big multi-pitch ice in a beautiful setting. the routes we climbed ranged from WI3 to 4+, though the flows often offered varied difficulty. each day we probably climbed 200-300 m of ice! on the final day we had the pleasure of climbing with joe josephson, author of winter dance, on a nice sunny day. it was brice's camera, but we all took photos. enjoy! Gear Notes: screws, v-threads a requirement for rappels Approach Notes: reasonable approaches with very little snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilgbaird5 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Did you see any Big Horn Sheep along the road? We climb there every year, ran out of gas near Deer Creek last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
