The Miracle on Snice

More fun times on I-Rock. We climbed an interesting line that worked itself into the left skylight (about 100 feet left of the Skylight Direct route). We found much more ice on the N Face than in December. There was a half-pitch of Wi4 snice to exit the face... pretty exciting. With all the rime and ice on the face there are many opportunities to steeper and possibly new lines on I-Rock. It's hard to say exactly what has been climbed on I-Rock, for all we know we established a new line. Regardless, I-Rock's N Face is an absolute playground with many 2-4 pitch mixed lines waiting to be climbed.



Me following the second pitch (climbing with two seconds is kinda fun!)

Dan leads first pitch. He had just knocked a microwave size rock loose, it practically rolled to Yocum Ridge!



Dan exiting the lie-back chimney section. It was pretty burly climbing, certainly hard M5.
