Ice Climbing UtahHome/Conditions :: Archives :: About |
The goal of this site is to become an aggregation of news and conditions generated by the ice climbing community for our benifit. This site takes no responsibility for finding conditions different than described. Please send conditions to info@iceclimbingutah.com.
There is a guidebook, there are conditions threads on several websites, but there was until now, no dedicated place for ice conditions in Utah. Hopefully this will be a useful resource and aggregation of what's already (but separately) avaliable.
