Great ice climbing conditions were found in Crawford Notch yesterday. Matt, Phil and I took Alphonzo's lead and went to Willard. He posted a few enticing pictures on NEIce the day prior.
Matt was hungry for steep ice so he chose the Great Madness. The route was in good shape, very steep and candled ice but that is the norm for the route. After the Madness we could not pass up the beautiful looking Snot Rocket. The route was in the best shape that I have seen, very fun technical climbing up to a cool belay cave.
Matt gearing up the mind for the steep Great Madness.
Phil happy to be getting out for his first time.
Matt in the business - winding in a screw.
