And some tips from top climber Will Gadd: "There is pride in managing a situation well, regret in falling off"NEVER! been climbing ice since 1972. The percentage is sky high of ankle and lower leg injuries and fractures (many of them serious) of the people I know personally and anecdotally who have fallen while leading. Guided ice for 20 years and never heard of a serious injury for someone toproping but agree with Pavel that with an inattentive belay it would be easy to break and ankle falling on TR 5-6 feet.
Huh? Falling while ice climbing on top rope is totally acceptable. This really should say "Don't Ever Fall ON LEAD"
The only ‘bad style’ while leading ice is Falling.
Look closely at the video and you'll see he fell at the moment he had BOTH axes out of the ice at the same time. How he reached the conclusion that he was ready for solo climbing, or even lead climbing, is hard to fathom.
Where was he going? He was going to dry tool that top out?

Tricks and Treats The first ice climb of the season is an eventful day for all of us. As fortune would have it, every year over the last decade, I’ve found good ice in the month of October.

Max Bond will be presenting his study that used machine learning analysis to "backcast" avalanches to 1950 to look for changes brought by a warming climate.
Join him on Zoom to see the results. Mark your calendar for Nov. 30 at 7pm.
We'll post a Zoom link on the Events Calendar on the MWAC website.

An interview with Ian Osteyee and 10 of the must-climb local routesNE climbing is also really cool because of the local climbing community 👌👌
Because we have so much more water than the west.
Effective midnight Friday, October 16, all Katahdin and Traveller trails will be closed at their trailheads in an effort to protect natural resources above treeline. These trails will be closed until December 1, the start of the winter season, or later if freeze-thaw cycles continue to render alpine plant communities vulnerable to greater impacts from hikers. Accumulating snow expected Saturday will obscure trail markings, which contributes not only to issues of natural resource protection but also hiker safety. Gates will be closed on the South Branch Pond Road and Roaring Brook Road at the Sanctuary Line.
Lower elevation trails are still open. Many stream crossings are at seasonally high levels and fords should be avoided.

It won't be long now! Winter is coming. Are you ready?Good morning everybody! Hope everyone is enjoying the blustery autumnal weather down low! Meanwhile on the summit, a wintery landscape has settled in for the day, bearing strong winds, large pieces of glaze ice, and rapidly falling temperatures!
A few articles on “Early Season Ice” to get you psyched!

Season opener 🧊⛏

Pinnacle Gully is definitely thin but in. Thoughtful moves over some particularly thin sections where water was running underneath with decently protectable ice for the conditions.
•
Great day out for the start of the season with crazy gusts coming in over the rock pile from the west once we got into the alpine garden.

As the days get shorter so does our window of time to prepare for the ice before it comes in. So when you are at the climbing gym or on your home wall training long into the night be sure you are making the most of it. Train hard, train smarter.
