Ice Climbing Programs 2008

Ice Climbing is fabulous way to get outside and have fun in the winter. Whether you're a rock climber looking to keep climbing in the winter, or someone who wants to start climbing but just can't seem to find the time in the summer season, ice climbing may be just what you've been looking for. All of our programs include modern ice tools, boots, and crampons, as well as all of the safety equipment you will require. Classes are held, for the most part, in Huntsville (dependant on ice conditions) which offers the challenge of great ice to climb combined with the breathtaking surroundings of Ontario's "Near North" region.
