Maybe start a Montana Ice Conditions thread?

GWI's annual BBQ on Sunday, 3 Feb. Schedule is 9am for schlepping gear. 11am for coals, done by 1 or 2pm. BYOBBB (burgers, brats, beer). Also, bring your own golden ice axe...

Climbed in Provo Canyon. Not as much of a disaster as I expected but the ice is looking a little haggard.

It's true--brought to you EXCLUSIVELY by NO STAR TUESDAY, the 3rd Annual Superbowl-GWI-BBQ. No glass please, only 3.2 beer in cans; also, please be mindful of recent access developments having mainly to do with new parking restrictions near the power plant. Carpooling from the Park and Ride at the mouth of LCC might be a fine idea... See you there!

I heard there is some gear swapping that usually happens?

1st pitch of backoff has sheared off and there is a fracture on squash head at the start of the second pitch that runs about 3/4 of the way across the flow. Heads up. Also getting to the anchors at the top was a little sketchy with running water and the rock slab

i think you have gear swapping confused with beer swapping.

it happens.

Whats the turn out like for the bbq? The ledge ain`t that big. A couple new comers (to the event) are thinking of going.

It makes for a friendly party. Wall to wall dude sandwich with a couple of other dudes girlfriends thrown in as a condiment.

Pack your mountain axe with a adze and just cut yourself a ledge.

This GWI superbowl bbq sounds fun! Is it open to all the ice community? Id like to meet new friends into this awesome sport!
