We will be planning the Sandstone Ice Climbing Trip. Here are some details...
  • December 11-13, Sandstone Minnesota.
  • We will be leaving Friday and coming back Sunday
  • The trip will cost $30-$35 depending on how many people go, with a $15 deposit due on November 30, and the remainder of the trip cost due on December 11.
  • The club has been going to this ice festival for many years, and it is a lot of fun. They have lots of climbing, clinics for all levels, winter camping, Dawn Glanc...who is awesome raffle, gear swap, a group dinner, and fireworks!!!
  • Check out there website for more information... sandstoneicefest.com
  • Note...If you want to go, and want to go to a clinic...you have to "donate" $10 to get into a clinic. Do this now if you are planning on going, clinics fill up so register and then email the guy about getting into a clinic. We defiantly are going, and can probably take as many people as want to go, so if you are interested, I suggest registering and singing up for a clinic totally worth the $10.
  • The club has all the ice climbing gear necessary except mountaineering boots, they aren't a necessity but if you want some let us know after break and we can arrange a rental for you.
  • If you are intersted, please email Eric so he can get a rough idea of how many people might go.
