The Crow hill boulder traverse is definitely one of my favorite bouldering traverses in our area.

Worked out a more direct line up the back side of Sampson’s pebble today. Perfect day climb!

Yesterday couldn’t have been a more beautiful day for ice climbing in Auburn with some adventurous students from Amherst College. Sunny with warmer temps made for softer ice conditions. Plus the ice is the fattest it’s been all winter in there right now. If anyone is looking to go ice climbing this week or weekend, just let me know.

Got on some beautiful soft ice at Newfound Lake in NH. A great spot for ice climbing.

Had an incredible day guiding an ice climbing trip yesterday in Auburn with a bunch of fun loving, adventurous people. The weather was so mild that it was one of the first days climbing this year that I didn’t feel like I was freezing my ass off. It was warm enough that the ice softened and it was super easy to pe*****te with our tools to climb. In fact, many of my clients chose to climb without gloves. Something you definitely can’t do when it’s a freezing cold day. Not only did we have an amazing day climbing, but the rains that came began shortly after we parted ways at the end of a really fun day of local adventure.

Mount Willard was pretty quiet for the start of the new year. Some sunshine and some protection from the wind on the Monkey Wrench and Hitchock Gully to the summit was well worth the effort climbing with good friends.

What a fun day guiding the Amherst College’s Outing club today. There was some wonderful ice for beginners, but the best of the ice routes at the Rail Road cut up past Keene, NH have failed to form most likey due to the extemely dry summer and fall, coupled with just how cold its been this winter. I have never seen the best routes there not in and climbable in February and I’ve been climbing there for over 30 years. Luckily, thanks to the hard work of local climbers, like George Adams there are lots of amazing dry tool routes to work on! With snow and cold in the extended forecast, there should be plenty of good options for climbing locally in New England right through to March this year!

Snuck in some climbing tonight in Auburn with Fletcher. Going back with my students tomorrow for an outdoor adventure field trip. I’m hope they love it and the weather holds for us. I’d rather see some more snow rather than rain.
