Sometimes the weather makes a story. During my first ice climbing excursion of the season; persistent spindrift, sluffing, and wind produced quite a rousing experience on a very moderate route. Spindrift blew so violently into the snow-choked gully that breathing was challenging. However, while the ice was mediocre and the weather uncooperative, as always we savored the exquisite scenery and terrain of Rocky Mountain National Park, returning to the car without frostbite and only minor wind-burn.
