2007 Ice Courses

Yes it has been a long time coming this season, but finally we are climbing Ice in Muskoka. An unnormally warm winter certainly put a damper on our itch to get out with the picks but with plenty of rain now in the soil and the recent cold temeratures climbs in the area are growing fast. This Saturday our group met up to tackle the climbs at Kushog Lake. All climbers cruised up Blue Boy (WI2+) , and Caramel Coating (WI3 - Pictured). Then it was on to the daunting Blue Pillar (WI4), a challenging 30M sustained vertical climb. As usual the day was finished off with food at the Firehouse Restaurant. Thanks to Anita for the access to this great area and excellent food! We return to this area for our next course this coming weekend on Sunday the 4th. We still have 2 spaces available if anyone out there wants to experience this great Muskoka activity.
