Mack's Climbing Page What's a native son of flat, hot, dry Texas doing climbing? If you can figure that one out, please drop me a line, I'd really like to know myself. Until then I think I'll stick with George Mallory's explanation: "to struggle and to understand". I'm still struggling and I darn sure don't understand... Anyway, here are a few pictures and tales from some of my adventures. I'll add more as time permits; I've got mountains to climb (literally).

Points on Ice: information on how ice-climbs form, deform, and fail "Praise not…the ice until it has been crossed." From the Viking saga Havamal, circa 1000A.D. Ice-climb Formation supercooled to a temperature below the freezing point before crystal nucleation spontaneously begins. The rate of supercooling affects how many crystals will form. With a faster rate of cooling, more crystals nucleate. In Nature, there's almost always the presence of a seed, and it's usually ice crystals themselves. The suspension of small ice crystals in the water is termed "frazil.". Frazil most often conveniently arrives in the form of snow falling, so snowfall accentuates ice formation. In flowing water –especially for a thin film– frazil can agglomerate into hanging dams which inhibit the flow and form a sort of terrace-works on the ice surface. Hanging dams create washboard texture, and are responsible for the ribbed texture of many icicles. The ridges that result from hanging dams can be fractions to many inches in period and height. Frazil can adhere to underlying rock, dirt, or plants to form bulbous

172. PlanetMountain.com - Ice - Grading System Over the last couple of years there has been a dramatic rise in iceclimbing standards; ice falls are being freed and the scale is shifting upwards rapidly. http://www.planetmountain.com/English/Ice/diff/diff.html

back to Ice I. Short climb, well-protected, fixed belays, easy descent, quick walk-in. Not particularly demanding II. One or two pitches, well-protected, fixed belays, descent on easy terrain, quick walk-in. Not particularly demanding nor dangerous. III. Multi-pitch climb that requires a couple of hours to climb or to walk-in (possibly with skis). Good knowledge of the winter mountain environment essential. No fixed belays. Descent usually via abseil down the route. IV. Long multi-pitch route in alpine environment. Good knowledge of the winter mountain environment essential. The walk-in may be prone to ice and/or stone falls, and/or avalanches. Difficult descent; abseils need to be rigged. V. Long, sustained and demanding multi-pitch route. Danger of rock/ice/avalanches, demanding descent. Few repeats. VI. Extremely long and isolated climb, difficult to repeat in just one day. Difficult approach and descent, and difficult to turn back once on the route. The hardest ice routes in the Alps and the world are currently accounted for in this grade. VII. As for No. VI, but harder still. There are few routes of this grade at present.
