Need a Partner for Glacier National Park Ice!

Submitted by wyo1890 on Fri, 03/04/2011 - 11:01

 

I will be working in Sunburst, MT from March 11th-21st. I would really like to get on some ice in Glacier. I am not too familiar with the area or whats in. I have a full ice rack and am willing to travel. I thought it would be cool to ski in to Avalanche and climb the head wall for a day. Please let me know if you have any suggesttions of good ice in the area or if you would like to join! Cheers

The main wall at Koocanusa is in today.  The top is a little thin and detached.  There is alot of water running down the whole wall.  If it gets cold again there will be alot of ice forming fast. 

I drove up and checked Sutton Falls last weekend.  It is out, center section broke off with the warm weather.

Ok so here's the pictures from this Monday.  Mike and I climbed "Steamboat Alley" on Steamboat mountain, which is on the way to Cataract falls south of Augusta.  We climbed it last year for the first time.  I led that year and Mike led this year.  It's a sorta sublimated / polished WI5, vertical on a slightly overhanging wall, older ice as the water flow shuts down early in the year.  It was a thin, intimidating but a really really

I don't know where to post on Cataract falls, close to Augusta. I guess do it under GNP.

The road is fine, busted drifts, you could get a subaru in there fine I think.

The ice is, well, pretty damn wet today. Huge hole in the top part thats raining water all over everything.  Which will be good when it's colder.  But today it just made US colder.  Next week should be bueno.

anybody aware of anything ready for climbing on 2 between falls and browning?

Avalanche Lake

Submitted by icefarmer on Sat, 11/21/2009 - 19:28

 

Since the road to the campground was still open today, went up to take a look.  The ice is there, but up high, around the 5,000 ft. mark.  (if going up head up real early)

The pig and monument falls are in, needs to build more, but climbable.  If going to monument falls, you need to traverse as if heading to the pig.  The easy ice that you need to climb to get to monument falls and memorandum is not in.  Memorandum looks in, but first pitch looks hard.

The lake is not frozen.

Cannon has ice,but it also is really high.  Cannon barrel is close.
