Located at one of our local ice climbing areas, the Bull River offers some pretty wicked ice and mixed lines. Climbing there throughout this season, i really wanted to capture an original view of this beautiful canyon. After scouting out a few areas and lines, we (myself and a few friends) found the perfect line with such a view that explains in one shot, how beautiful this location really is.
After dangling flood lights from the bridge above, the stage was sent and the lighting was perfect. Naturally, the second i rapped into the canyon to climb the line...it started to poor. We weren't impressed. However, we wanted the shot and nothing was going to stop us from getting it.
Three hours later it was time to get out of the rain. Of course, the photographer (Patrice Halley) got a stellar photo, one in which we had been hopping for.
The Bull River canyon has a lot of potential mixed lines that would challenge the best. That and there are many ice lines that offer super fun routes and challenging moves.
