ice by vancouver bc?

[el_blanco]

hi, not familiar with bc ice climbing areas and making a trip up there without much time to research what is available and what is in right now.

from my quick look it looks like lilooet is home base for a bunch of stuff, but i was hoping for something further south.

not to picky on if its a TR crag or a multi pitch couloir climb. best if an area with variety of types.

thanks!

check out west coast ice by don serl if you can get a copy of it. but hope is close, prolly not in. theres some stuff up on whistler too, but im not very familiar with those climbs. squamish and lytton too. where are you coming from? theres alot of stuff right off the road on highway 20 if youre coming from the south

last time I was there PC Valentine was forming too, and white blotter was in, but we could not climb it because it was in full sun.

 

ps... its actually my banana thats too big. Good guess though!
