if you look like your passport photo, then you probably need the vacation

Bastard!
I have to wait at least 3 weeks to get on some ice, and that's only if I drive down to New Hampshire!
And no Canmore trip this year.
Going to Switzerland instead.

And a trip to Switzerland deserves a sad smiley face because......?
I'm trying to feel your pain, but it just ain't happening

The Sad smiley is for the no trip to Canmore.

But i'm sure ice climbing in Switzerland will make up for it.

Hey Rendog, let me know how the conditions are. Its definatly still a gamble but you might luck out. We were in the sun yesterday clipping bolts at STD but as soon as you stepped in the shade the temps dropped by 5 degrees, it seemed to start forming 3 weeks ago. All signs seemed to point to climbable ice.
