UTAH - 2015/16 Ice Season
|
Sundial is in. It takes pro just fine. I believe we left a new BD express 10cm screw at the base of the final column or at the anchor on top. If you find it, i would be willing to trade some beers to get the screw back. Otherwise, enjoy the booty. |

Stairway was a bit sloppy but fun today (Nov 14). Plenty of junk falling down up there, so it's not wise to climb under the hang fire. The far left side (left most chains with ice below) are the safest. |
|
Here are a few pictures from Provo Canyon and Aspen Grove on Timp. The Aspen Grove climbs are pretty disappointing. The lower stuff like 1st falls and 2nd falls were barely there. The higher climbs like Picture Window were pretty scarce too. It was 40° up there today so I guess that explains it. |
|
had a buddy go down to the Pricecicle Saturday, he said it was terrible and coming down. He then went to Joe's and says CCC falls is not quite in yet, pretty thin. |
|
Here is a shot of Pricecicle (AKA Dirtcicle) from Saturday. I would say it's filling in vs. coming down. |
|
I drove by Pricicle on Friday and on Sunday got a good look at it both times. It's getting bigger by the day. |
|
Today's conditions in Provo were pretty ugly, just mushy, thin stuff left... |
|
Sundial was still good Sunday 11/15, plenty thick although the top pillar was running pretty well. Hopefully this storm cycle brings plenty of precip and colder temps! And Matt I have your screw, would gladly return it. Pm me to figure something out. Anybody had a look at Maple lately? |
|
Just throwing it out there. I have a rope and a rack, just need a belayer and a ride... Located in Sandy, no vehicle at the moment. |
|
Last Chance Falls, really thin, we decided to give it a little more time before attacking it |
|
Not to significantly inconvenience anyone, but would someone mind changing the name of this thread to "Utah 2015/16 Ice Season" |

^^^^^ |

I just bookmark it each year, makes it easy to quickly pull it up. Much better than searching through the general forums. |
|
I'm trying to get out climbing on Friday I need a partner. Anyone interested? PM me or shoot me a message. |

All the same, I will see what can be done to make life easier on those where the air is thinner and the pot flows free-er. |

Thanks Chad. I'm still confused about what kind of ice it is though. Equatorial? |
|
Friends went rock climbing in Maple yesterday. No ice. |

#TeamEasy went up to the Uinta's today. Entering from Wyoming the gate is still open and driveable. |
