The Ice has Returned to the usual Early Season Locations

After a week +  of warm weather, which took it’s toll on what little ice we had, the cold temps have returned! Climbable ice was found in the Adirondacks & Northern New Hampshire over the weekend.

Rowdy Dowdy on the thin start of 'Screw and Climbaxe'. A few worthless stubby screws halfway up. Half a dozen parties climbing the two routes that were 'in'. – 11/21/10 North Face of Pitchoff, Adirondacks NY – Rockytop

” I just had essentially my entire screw rack tuned up, and he did an absolutely superb job. Great communication, and amazingly quick turn-around. And when he says that your screws will come back in “like new condition” he’s not kidding: Exceptional workmanship. Highly recommended.”
