If something shows up, especially south central or southwest, pleeeeeease share? I hope to lure my out of town friend over, maybe January? I got a birthday then!

I'll be keeping an eye on Twin Falls ice, Teton Canyon, and ice around Pocatello (where I live) I'll post condition updates as I go.

Trail creek Ice, outside of Sun Valley is in and accessible, at least til the next big dump.  Easy access, fun multipitch WI 2+ in RockRoll canyon.  Even has bolt belay/rap stations on it now.  Did a moonlight mission out to the further flows, up canyon  last night.  Wouldn't recommend those as much though.  8 hours car to car of postholing and bushwacking for one pitch of ice!

Boy Scout in Teton canyon is in. I saw it in my Instabanger feed last week sometime. Looked in pretty hard conditions tho.

Please do not be so lazy as to pee at the base of an ice climb, walk the fuck around the corner, rock roll had 4 piss spots right at the base of the climb.

Also, trail creek ice now requires a 5 mile hike in, the city dumped snow just past the gun club, closing the road before the gates.

Is Twin Falls in? Actually asking for a friend, lol!

Also, can someone pm me about SW Idaho ice? I'd like to hike out ahead, make sure I remember how to get back to stuff. With Kevin gone...

Drove across the bridge in Twin and was surprised at how much ice there was on the North side.  Didn't scout any more than that but I'd imagine stuff is coming in or is in.

Friends have been climbing ice in the canyon for weeks
