Description 

There are 1 pitch climbs strung out along Henson Creek Rd. from the first ice park to just shy of the second one. They get a lot of sunhit so may or may not be in. They seem to range from WI3 to WI5 with one exception being a very modern drytool line in the big cave you pass. Length generally seems to be from 1/2 a rope to a full rope length. Expect good ice if its there, poor to terrible rock in most places, and be prepared to construct your own rap anchors either from v threads or if you must, carefully in the rock.


Getting There 

From the first ice park, just begin looking out your right window (or better yet have your partner do it while you focus on the narrow winding road with no guard rail)!
