Rick joined me last weekend for a great couple days of ice climbing. On Saturday we headed into Grotto Canyon and did tons of laps on "His" (WI4), "Hers" (WI3), and "Grotto Falls" (WI2). "His" was in quite challenging conditions and involved a bit of mixed climbing & some overhanging ice to gain the pillar! Rick was doing awesome so we even did a lap on one of the M6 mixed climbs at the end of the day.
