Ice Climbing is Fun!
December 20th and 21st 2011
Duffey Lake Road and Marble Canyon, British Columbia
Just spent two great days ice climbing with John north of Vancouver in Lilooet: a perfect over night trip. This was John’s first time ice climbing. We started climbing at the Rambles Left. This is a very enjoyable easy angled ice fall with a steep finish. Perfect for beginners. The next morning we moved on to Marble Canyon where did some endurance laps on the steep Deeping Wall and Icy BC.
