Our 2 day Lake City Ice Park course is perfect for folks new to ice climbing and experienced ice climbers alike. Steep ice & mixed climbing techniques, multi-pitch skills, leading ice, and anchor building are just some the things that are available to you in this 2 day course.
Â
The town of Lake City is charming and has some great local restaurants, a brewery, and coffee shop. Warming tents with wood stoves, firepits, bathrooms, and picnic tables right near the ice make this a perfect place to learn and stay motivated!
