Nice Ice Climbing Silo- South of Chicago! Celebrating our 10th Season of Ice!

this thread delivers, just sayin'

Long shot, but I really doubt you have boots/'pons for rent? Might be fun to drag my siblings up to Chicago for day or two while home in St. Louis for the holidays. Would also be my first ice of this warm-ass Northeast season!

• * Yes, we have all you need for rent(depends on sizes-not too small but cramps should go on most sturdy boots you have).

lol this is great!!!

I used to live in Wisconsin so I know what it's like.

Ice is flowing again but maybe not for long with the warm temps.
coming again!!! :(

Less than 12 hrs of new ice today-

another shot

Will this be around till the weekend (i.e., will you be farming more over the rest of the week)? And how far from Madison, WI?

Edit: Just checked the weather forecast - looks like Thursday and Friday are all set to ruin it for the weekend.

We are going to try to climb on Wed. afternoon if we get good ice build tonight- Join us if you can

Climbed today(Tues- 1/4) till about 8 PM. Great ice but warm temps. are about to take it from us....

more...

Night time shot with lights Buried in the ice!

Plan on trying to climb Wed(1/5) again in the AM or afternoon

Yeah, lets climb.... maybe after dark again.

More night Ice Climbing tonight...the last for a week or so??

More rope lights are up and looking for these crappy warm temps to leave then Ice starts flowing again Wed. night

Water is flowing.... hopefully Ice by Saturday!

Here the ice today after just 19hrs.... we will be climbing tonight and on Sat. and Sun. for sure- Come join us. PM me for details

Super cool. Right on guys.

I don't know why some people are being such dicks to the OP. Get a life.

Speaking as someone who has lived in both climbing paradise and climbing hell (currently London), I'd sure go check this place out if it was all I had (and I don't even ice climb).
