    Some More Ice in Joe's Valley

    Jordan and I took a nice overnight trip to Joe's this past weekend. It was a great trip. We met some cool folks and had some great climbs. Before I get too far I'll mention conditions on the following routes (also posted on the conditions page).

    CCC: In but rotten ice on the bottom and very little throughout. No really stellar spots for good pro.

    Donorcicle: In and huge. Fantastic conditions (see pics below)

    Wolfenstein/Melty Way: Nada

    Highway to Heaven/Deadbolt: In and it looks great

    Ampitheater: Not much there.

    Spear of Fear: Nothing that I could see there

    Pricecicle/Dirtcicle: In and looking really good

    On with the TR. We had a great midnight climb up the first pitch of CCC.



    Shot taken on tripod during my lead of the climb. 11 min 45 second exposure. ISO 100. f8.0



    Similar shot on a second. 3 min 30 seconds. ISO 400. f8.0



    Picture taken at camp about 1:30 AM


    Next morning at the Donorcicle







    This way to the ice:

    Looking out from "the cave". The area behind the donorcicle is a great area to play around in.



    Love this climb

    For those interested, the Dirtcicle is looking good:



    It was a great trip. I love Joe's so it was just fantastic to get back down there to see the beauty of the surrounding area and climb some great ice.
