Just curious... do you ever stick your tool through the silo? Isn't that bad for the silo? Probably the dumbest question ever asked...

No, the ice is fairly thick but if we hit the concrete silo it will dull the tool a bit

This ain't no modern aluminum silo here,,,this is from a farm near 100 years old and is solid concrete with thick steel bands around it every 30 inches or so. The steel helps catch some ice formation, and adds ridges to the ice, some that are helpful steps when ice is thin. Old hoses and boards add more structure for the ice to freeze and take shape upon. Each re-freeze this winter has had a bit of familiar ice, but usually new forms and shapes for our continued climbs. Compare some of the older pics from last season, or even this Dec and Jan. Look for the differences if you can see them.
