This was taken a few weeks after the curtain fell 2001 (which happens every year). The curtain falls then reforms about 2 feet away from its original position, that is if your careful not to break it loose again. Yep, it's a stretch but if you just climb the ice a couple feet you have a great screw placement.<br>
