jstreet Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 (edited) Tom Lewis, Phil Kelly, Glen Glover and myself drove the long 20 hours to Ouray, Colorado to ice climb in the ice park there. Glen was my partner. Phil was Tom's partner. The Mountaineers Water Ice Course arrived in Ouray a day or two after we did and we helped teach on the "leading" day. There was six students there this year; Eva, Claire, Anne, Joe, Max, and Kirk and they all seemed to be having fun and progressing there ice climbing nicely. Here are some photos Glen and I took...
