Thunder Bay ice climbing
I have now been to Thunder Bay twice in the past month. Both times ice climbing. All I can say is "wow"!

I've always enjoyed ice climbing, and Thunder Bay just brings it to a completely new level. My only regret is that I hadn't made the journey earlier. The season is almost over, and I doubt I'll get another weekend in before the ice gets too sketchy.

For some reason, ice climbing doesn't hurt my fingers as much as rock climbing does. Probably the lack of opening/closing my grip when I'm holding ice axes. This is good. I'm afraid that I have very few days of rock climbing ahead of me, as my fingers hurt way too much.

I've been in a bit of a funk lately. Been trying to think what I'd do when I couldn't climb anymore. Fortunately, it seems as those days have been pushed back a bit. At least when it comes to ice. I finally have motivation again to get back into shape.
