Trip: Sick Times at Hyalite -

 

Date: 12/19/2010

 

Trip Report:

Climber/Photographer Ben Herndon and I went to Hyalite for a week of climbing, partying and photography. Our first few days there we participated in the Bozeman Ice Fest 2010. I had never been to a festival before and I can tell you this one is wayyy fun. Great shows on Guy Lacell, from Will Gadd and many others, kept the stoke up in high gear. Each evening we were driven crazy by the presentations and the hot ice climbing chicks there. Sorry no photos of the chicks. Anywhoo, every thing else here is fat and blue. Some of the low hanging fruit climbs are a little picked out, but the walker will be rewarded.

Day 1: Craig and Marko tried Rocket Boy after we did the new ascent of its first pitch.
