I don't know if anyone has any info on the actual ice on the flank of Colvin, near the base of the nippletop slide, but what I am really looking for is pics of the side of colvin from the nippletop side in winter. I'd like to get a look at what I am about to climb in a couple days :) Anyone...

That's right. We got the first climb in the dack's for the season! Left ALbany at 2:30 am Saturday Nov 11th. At 4:20Am or so, we were in the Stewarts in Keene praying to god that the gas pumps were on, as my truck had been on low fuel since exit 30 off the northway! There weren't open till...

Hey guys.. I've been out of the loop for awhile, doing ice climbing over the winter so I haven't posted much! Anywho, i am looking at getting a GPS. I have narrowed it down to the garmin vista or the garmin 60cs. What I'm looking for is opinions from owners of these, or if you know a lot...

A W E S O M E mountaineering epic...showing right *now* at the spectrum theatre in Albany,NY. I highly reccommend this to everyone on this board, as well as any other I have come into contact with since I saw it on Sunday. Makes me feel like a wimp after doing the trap dyke 2 weekends ago! 2...
