wayne Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Trip: The Replicant - Date: 1/12/2012 Trip Report: Wow, what an ice route The Big R is! Cant imagine doing it as a mixed route. It is in good shape right now. Pitch 1 is a hollow hook-fest and bouldery, p2 is a free hanging dagger yet isnt too bad. P3 is relentless wi5 and a long 60m if you still have gas in the tank.(I did not) One for the dream list for sure, pics and story here. Gear Notes: Many screws, we took 13 Approach Notes: Study this one and expect some wallowing. Quote
DanielHarro Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Looking good! Nice job wayne!! Canada is having an amazing season!! Quote
Plaidman Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 Right on Wayne!! Way to get after it. Bring some of that ice down this way. It looks like I will have to travel to get any this year. Quote
LowLife Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 That is one sweet lookin' piece of ice. Seeing a tr like that sure makes it tough to show up at the office the next day! Strong work up there, and thanks for sharing some serious stoke! Quote

anonymous99 Posted January 26, 2012 Posted January 26, 2012 A grouping of the three best ice-climbs ever IMHO (Terminator, Replicant, Sea of Vapors). Thanks for stoking the fire for the annual trip later this year! Anyone know if these have all been linked in a day? Quote
