Suggested Page Improvements to ** Bouldering in Icicle Creek
Also add the Whip Boulder to Icicle Buttress Boulders.
(2) Add the Millenium Boulder area in its entirety to the Lonely Fish, since they're just across the street from one another. I didn't take sub-areas into account when I first made the Millenium Boulder.
Some of the best bouldering in the state can be found up in the Icicle. The [[105792632]], Mad Meadows, and plenty of outlying boulders provide a wealth of terrain to test one's self. The legend goes that there are great boulders within walking distance of any pullout up Icicle Road - and this legend is true! In addition to the hundreds of roadside problems, there are endless boulder-filled plateaus up on the north side of the canyon, dozens of scary riverside highballs and deep/shallow water solos, and plenty of untapped potential on the inaccessible south side of the river and farther upcanyon. The one detractor to Icicle bouldering is the access issues: increased privatization and irrigation development has closed off some areas, so try to keep your impact low on the many sectors that are on or nearby public land. You can find shady woods in the summer, sun-raked plazas in the fall, lonely test pieces hiding on the hillside or busy circuit circuses with room for everyone. Welcome to the Icicle, crown jewel of Leavenworth bouldering.
