Dru Posted January 4, 2002 Posted January 4, 2002 Kelowna is 1/2 hour drive north of Skaha/Penticton, for you WA climbers. If you can find a copy of the 1986 CAJ, the article "Bikinis and Baby Oil" mentions some ice climbing in the Okanagan Valley. In general there is not much ice that I know of there. You might visit the www.skaha.org website and send its webmaster, Sean Dougherty (also the guy who wtrote Selected Alpine Climbs of The Cdn. Rockies) an email - cause he might know of some Okanagan ice. If you find out anything post it here. I think the nearest reliable site is in Revelstoke though, and that's at least 2 hrs from Kelowna. you could probably drive to Marble Canyon in the same time. Quote
