You know, I run the whole show here, on my own, after work with the help of a few trusted friends. NEice is not some large company with huge budgets and resources. This is NEice.com, a community-based web site built by Ice Climbers for Ice Climbers. But you know, as a group, we Kick […]
What would the ice climbing season be like without NEice? Think about it! It’s time for the year end Fund Drive.

We looked at the ‘Mammut 150 Years Peak Project: Trango Towers’ video which used radio control helicopters to capture amazing aerial climbing footage. After the two-minute video was over, Doug looked at me and said, “Hey, we can do that!” If […]
By Courtney Ley I decided to head to the Adirondacks over the weekend to see how things were fairing after the recent thaw. I wanted to do a lot of climbing, so it only made sense to hire Alex Wakeman as my climbing partner. A young buck from Saratoga, he climbs night and day. When you […]
On Sunday, December 15th, 2013, Boston Rock Gym in Woburn, MA will be hosting the 7th installment of their Social Outcast Club—a unique way for climbers to learn, socialize and share experiences about what we all love in a fun, relaxed atmosphere.
