Hahn's Solo

WI3-, Trad, Ice, 80 ft (24 m),  Avg: 1 from 3 votes
FA: Jim Detterline
Colorado > CO Ice & Mixed > Big Thompson Canyon Ice

Description

WI3- is the first 12 feet then it is a nice 2 to 2- after. I found it as fun as the upper big T ice climb, but easier access.

Location

Roadside, north side of US Highway 34, 1.4 miles west of the siphon tube.

Protection

Would suck up any screws you put in. I soloed it and down climbed it. No rap anchors.

Parking

Best parking is just uphill & on the south side of the highway. Parking on the pavement can result in tickets.

[Hide Comment] Well, Jim Detterline apparently beat me to the F.A. 4 days prior. Congrats, Jim, on this fun roadside climb. Jan 25, 2007
