The winter goose had one more egg to lay on the northeast this weekend! We linked up pinnacle gully on the way up and right gully on the way down Mt Washington. We found WAY more snow than we expected in Huntington Ravine, and less than we hoped in Tuckermans. It was a big day with several curveballs but we got it done, and probably were some of the last people this season to make it all the way back to the car with skis still on the feet. Solid day out! #skitheeast #skithewhites #neiceconditions

The joy of living on the edge. A beautiful sufferfest!

This is from a bitter cold day in January! Windy and subzero Fahrenheit temps. I remember getting barfies halfway up the lead. I couldn’t feel my hands! Then I set up a TR and rapped halfway down to take pictures of peeps. Behold, javkhlanb2001 on Little Black Dike.

A beautiful sufferfest! Thank God for ICE 😍

4/4/21. Pinnacle by alex_fisch, who reports “It's in good shape--pitch 1 is fat dry blue ice and stuff after that is decent, some running water and flaky garbage ice but easy to avoid.” #neiceconditions

I wouldn’t believe you if you told me last year that I would become an ice climber and start rock climbing. I was always afraid of those sports. I still am, but I’ve become more comfortable with the sharp end. I turn 31 today and while I can feel my body taking longer to recover year after year I feel thankful to have friends that teach me new things and friends that are just as excited for my passions as me. I often get the fear that I would die feeling like I didn’t take enough opportunities to explore, or that I didn’t notice the “good ol’ days” while they’re occurring. I’m not the only one who’s thought about this. I just want to make sure I leave this earth knowing how precious life is, and how it can all be taken away without a moments notice. We’ve all got a clock. So I want to do as much as I can before this thing stops. 🕰

Ephemera 2020-21: It’s the fleeting nature of ice that makes it so precious. So much like life. The ice has melted, the rock warms, and I head to the desert southwest next week. Here are a few slices of ephemera from the cold world:

P1: Season opener on Cloudwalker. The season opened much like it ended, scratchy and damp. Surrounded by supportive and fun folks.
P2: With the late start to the season, Tuckerman proved an exceptional training ground for aspiring alpinists—but, I’ll admit it...by the end of December I’d been up there about a dozen times and was eager for valley ice.
3) I’m as proud about backing off this route as I am of climbing it a few days later. First round had me lacking the necessary rock pro. Wise decisions make for long seasons.
4) The Hobbit really seemed to shine as a guiding objective this season, as evidenced by Dan’s expression here. Many more enjoyed the challenge as well.
5) Doug’s Route’s final pillar is slow to form and quick to fail. Happy times threading those moments.
6) This year kept me closer to home. Lots of time at The Lake and more time with mentor ship, enjoying the process of developing evolving leaders.
7) Smuggs this year was a lot of new wine from old vines. Summer rockfall in several areas transformed several ice routes, including P2 of Ragna.
8) I’ve always maintained that being an ice climber in the NE is essential to not becoming a bitter skier. But when the skiing is good, it’s oh-so/sweet.
9) Get while the getting’s good! In GOS with a fun crew of backcountry folk.
10) Cheese and Crackers, in the Dackers. I’d never climbed or guided the right-side line. It was a pleasure to show up and enjoy the terrain with friends.

So much joy and growth this season. And I particularly enjoyed the community that winter ice and snow provided this (lean) season—sharing conditions and providing beta. The conditions may have been lean, but the sense of community was strong—thanks to all that shared it with me!

Listening to the ice come crashing down the gullys in Smugglers Notch. Time to put the ice tools away and dig out the rock gear! #hazybaby #cragvt #neiceconditions

Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow! Closed out my ice season with Fat and Soft ice, warm temps (relatively), and Fun ice friends. What a season! I was lucky enough to climb every single weekend this year, and then some. Thanks to everyone that shared a rope with me or a belay conversation, or hauled me up as their second, or trusted me on lead. So, so grateful to be able to live my passion as fully as possible. Next up: Rock! Oh, and taking down my 🎄. Seriously, it’s still up because I have had no time between work and chasing ice. 😂😂. #iceclimbing #ice #springishere #winterisover #goodbyewinter #epicwinter #adirondacks #adirondacksny #climberlife #mountains #adk #pureadk #climbergirl #optoutside #goeast #adventureispossible #adventure #climbing #neiceconditions #northeastice #hangingupmytools #thaw #myheart

3/22/21. A Long Way Home.
.

Repost • jeremyacote 3/20/21. Took on A Long Way Home with Andy today and finally got this off my to do list. Perfect neve made for easy travel on snowshoes and we made excellent time to the start of the climb after skirting around the base of Black Mountain. We opted to start at the cross country trail lot and avoided a crossing of the Hancock branch. This added to the mileage, but eliminated the river crossing. No wind, no people, and spectacular views to the Presidentials. Encountered two ice dams after noticing the telltale horizontal ice line. Conditions overall were good with firm snow on the route and solid ice. With its N aspect, this climb should hold in for a while. We topped out after three pitches. 7hr 15min car to car. #neiceconditions ne_ice_conditions #northeastice #neiceconditions
