HAPPY THANKSGIVING FOLKS... We all knew that winter would be here sooner than later, and here it is! Only a dusting on Tuesday, but it was enough to point the way. And according to all indicators we will be getting between 3" and 8" of snow on Thanksgiving day/night. While everyone is happy to be getting the weather we've been hoping for, I think everyone would have preferred it have waited 48 hours. Holiday travel is not going to be enjoyable, so please be safe!
The MWV Ice Fest is considered one of the premier climbing events in the country. For over 32 years it has provided a great opportunity for those attending to network, socialize, try new gear and participate in multiple day courses, one-day technical clinics and privately guided climbs. Don't miss it!

Selected Ice Conditions effective November 27, 2024
While the weather so far has not been conducive to ice formation, it would appear that this is about to change for the better. We are going to get more moisture in one form or the other on Thanksgiving which is a big plus, especially considering how dry things have been. And the predictions for the coming week look like chilly days and cold nights, with some sun, which could provide just what we need to get the ice happening. And of course more rain and/or snow would make things even better. I'm betting that someone will be on the Dike sooner than later. Stay tuned...

One Of Our Articles: Another Day At Ducks Head (a.k.a. Trollville)
Duck's Head (Trollville) is a great place to toprope or to get your mixed climbing skills in order. This day was a particularly great time...plus we ran into a couple of mixed-masters and got to watch them at work!
Climbing is a very dangerous sport. You can get hurt or even kill yourself. When you go climbing, you do so of your own free will. Everything on this site is to be taken with a grain of salt. Don't blame us if you get up some totally heinous route, in over your head and fall and hurt yourself.
