Trip: Utah-SLC - A few

 

Date: 1/16/2016

 

Trip Report:

There is ice in Utah! My first ice climbing trip there was good times, despite the biblically repressive alcohol laws over the holiday weekend. The locals are busy on the slopes tearing up the epic snow year, so the crowds weren't too bad at the popular areas, and non-existent at the remote areas. Only three days to climb, but I'd recommend taking a trip if you want something new. The approaches were as easy as it ever gets for ice climbing.

 

Some random pics:

Gear Notes:

Watching TSA try to figure out what ice screws are and whether they are allowed as carry-on was almost worth the show.

 

Approach Notes:

So easy
