Ice Climbing in Smugglers Notch, VT
March 10, 2007
Steve and Christiaan

Despite what the photos may suggest, we did in fact spend more time climbing than rapelling in the dark. But only just.
Lessons learned:

  • Bring Snow Shoes! (even if the beginning of the trail is well packed)
  • Bring Two Ropes, or be ready to make V-threads! (you can go 60m up on lead, but only 30m down on rappel)
  • Bring old slings for V-threads (see above)


Full report coming soon.
