Utah Ice: Coats Corner \\ Knowing Your Limit

Ice is an ever changing medium and depending on what type of season you are having, the grade can change. What was listed as WI4 in the guide book turned out to be much steeper and more in your face line than expected, at least to me. - With it still being relatively early season, I decided to back off the vertical first section and we decided to top rope Coats Corner. Ice climbing is a very fun activity, however you play for a lot and not having confidence in leading a section is a big red flag for not getting on the sharp end. - Overall, we still had a great time trying hard on the tools and then hit up the picked out Dirtcicle on the way back home which was a lot of fun night climbing! - 12/31/24 - 0:00 Intro 0:24 At Climb 1:30 Backoff of Climb 2:09 Setup Top Rope 2:28 Dan Climbs 3:52 Shane Climbs 5:40 Leaving Climb 6:14 Climb Thoughts 7:01 Dirtcicle Ice Climb
