We only get cold enough weather in Yakima every couple of years ice climb. The last time we went Horsetail Falls was sketchy (more water than ice) to say the least. The day after Christmas, Nick Jordan (Syd's fiance), Brent Burnett (Darcee's husband) and I drove up Chinook Pass to Horsetail Falls to check out the ice. The ice was solid but melting. I led the climb rather clumsily, but safely. Brent's new ice tools are amazing.
