Nuuksio



Walking back to the car after a brief climbing session at Nuuksio. Lovely day, not a cloud in the sky. Damn cold though.

Shadow on the lake

Teppo on the 'magic pillar'
I've called it the magic pillar because the ice seems to appear magically from nowhere. Every time I've done it you scoot up the steep bit to find a snow covered rock slab above with nothing on it. Much scratching and and unnerving teetering-about gets you behind the big block and sigh of relief.

Nora seconds One Point Gully
Nora having much more fun (and success) than her last time ice climbing that she told me involved falling off a repeatedly and getting smacked in the face by a large lump of ice. It's such a fun sport! ;-)
