Roaring Brook Falls

Only two weeks since my last visit to the Adirondacks and winter is back in full force, more importantly Roaring Brook Falls is in condition. If you don't know what I mean click here and take a quick peak at what it looked like two weeks ago. No that's not ice but running water in January!

This trip is really short notice but a great deal of fun to say the least. I've been waiting to lead RBF since Scott and I first climbed it with Chad Kennedy back in 2004. Conditions where great, a bit overcast when we started but as the morning wore on it cleared up nicely and the temperature was around 5 degrees with a light wind. Compared to Cascade Pass RBF was virtually wind free!

Well, enough of my blabbering enjoy the show!

Later,
