kevino Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Trip: Hyalite Canyon - Ice Vacation Date: 3/23/2009 Trip Report: Contrary to most college aged spring breakers, Scott, David and I headed east to experience the goodness of ice climbing in Montana. For all of us, this was our first time in the area, it also seemed like a re-introduction to ice climbing as school and work had consumed David and I and Scott had a broken leg prior to this trip. This really was a vacation of ice climbing. The climbing was great, however the new snow and climbing midweek meant a lot of trail breaking and figuring out approaches for ourselves. But enough of text, enjoy some pictures (Photos taken by David Kiehl, Scott Palmer and Kevin Oberholser). Dribbles in incredibly snowy, windy and cold conditions: "The Machines swing themselves!" Gear Notes: The usual: ice tools, ice screws and 2 60 meter ropes: Approach Notes: Thanks to John F. and Joe J. for helpful info. Having the road plowed to the TH is awesome! Having it snow 6 inches during the day and be the last one to drive out at night is even better! Quote
