Taken at about midnight, saturday 4thA week of sub-zero temps so we took a chance to take our ice gear out to a crag near Helsinki and see what was freezing. Thin early season conditions, enough to do a couple of lines, but not enough to put any protection in. This is me on the easy lefthand icefall at Kauhala:
Thanks to Tony for snapping away. Here's Tony climbing the same line:

Thin? There was a day when that would have been thick enough to warrant a 4am start and a three hour walk-in!
Fortunately the shortness of Finnish icefall are made up for by being compatible with 10 am starts, 3 pm finishes and thirty second walk-ins.
