I climbed a lot of frozen waterfalls in college. That was nearly 2 decades ago. I'd be down to go again, but I live in the south now. Where do you climb?

All over ontario but I start the season on a road cut right in Burks Falls a couple miles from home.Well if you like the cold and can get yurass here, I can put you up I live on 100 acres of bush with a big old farmhouse, near Algonquin park @10 k from here. Its a wilderness heaven. oddly the snow just arrived. The nearest climb is on a lake I can see from home.As far as age I'm 54 and as long as you are hard physically and mentally it will leave spent and grinnin in the end.Usually my last climb of the year is usually.Bear lake a two pitch grade 4 with a cave.The ice isnt quite here but the weather is here to make it. 6 hrs from here there is epic ice @ Sault St. Marie serious shit!Visit the great white north!

Oh man. I'm excited just thinking about it! It's been a rough year for me financially. I could see if I could get a cheap flight maybe in February. I'm 37 and am in pretty good shape. Not like I was at 23, but I still cave and rock climbing. Pm me the city to fly into.

Ive only done it a couple times but it was fun.... def enjoyed just smashing into the ice with crampons rather than having to locate a foot hold.
theres some near me but I only have a harness, atc, and a couple locking carabiners

He is back.
He's still banned from some forum(s) though. Don't think this is one.
