Big Four Ice Caves (ice climbing), December 2001
The entrance to the main ice cave as seen during the summer.
After some negative feedback on CascadeClimbers.com earlier that week regarding the ice conditions at the Big Four ice caves, Chris, Dave and myself were somewhat uncertain as to whether going out there would be worth the effort. Hoping that there would at least be a small wall of ice sufficient for us lowly ice climbers to practice on, we decided to go and check things out. Once there, we would become acquainted with fellow CC.com members Scott Harder, Bill Hemmen and Ryan (last name?) and together have one of our first ice climbing experiences.
