true. the rest on obsession was stellar. no hands - perfect.

I'd say in the conditions we climbed them it was a bit harder than Obsession. The pillar might be a little longer and you can't really weasel in the rest that was on Obsession. The ice on Obsession was a lot better too, the pillar was solid the whole way up and wasn't full of air pockets.

it was a solid lead, Nate. I wonder if it is harder or as hard as obsession in nipigon?

The ice was a little funky, but probably pretty standard for the line. The bottom half was hollow so I didn't dare try and put a screw in. Once the pillar did start sounding solid I put in a screw and it quickly hit air. So in went the second screw right after.

Thanks Dave! Late season for here, yes, but it's been cold so there is still ice around. March 21st now, and i went this morning around home.

Great sequence of shots Brent! Looks like pretty decent ice for this late in the season.
