Just went out for an afternoon ice climbing session. We had planned to get out earlier but were lazy. We still got a few good climbs in. I am still learning to use my new camera so a lot of the shots have blown out skys are are dark! heh but I am learning. Also its hard to make adjustments while belaying someone up a huge sheet of ice...or climbing! It was a nice day though in canyon (About 0 degrees.) .

Heres Dane climbing a curtian up a climb called T.J. Hooker.
