Day 1: Sunday in the Ice Park



On the other side of the world....

The ice here in Ouray is FABULOUS!.

Here are some images from another site!


Today, the tempt to was 38, no wind. we climbed at south park all day ...no fleece, just a shell and minimal gloves. the ice was hard but not brittle. Really weird climbing and it wasn't single digits or teens with wind chill and an ugly ass approach!!! I have never climbed here in the ice park but we paid $278 RT from DCA and with our ice park discount the hotel(s) are insanely affordable. WHY CLIMB ANYWHERE else. We climbed all day. the walk , if we walked to the nearest climb is .4 miles. It is some thing we aren't used back east and more and more towns are wising up to the big $$$$$ draw from ice climbers and setting up their own ice parks in their towns!!! Vincent Penoso
