I have been out in Gaspe, for the last little bit, and although it isnt the rockies.
The ice out here is pretty spectacular.
Was climbing in Perce, a bit and the ice is great, short approaches, some on the ocean cliffs, with the big rock in the background. There is alot out here!
I recommend this area, its a far road trip but pretty freakin' good.

yeah, thats a good site, a little vague, the area by Perce, is good, you can literally walk on the ocean and find lots of ice lines, that are unreported.
Cannelloni De Cure, is a pretty wild looking Gr5, likely 6.
We climbed the first two pitches of the approach ice, Gr 3, and Gr 4 and amazing atmosphere, except close to the road, but what the hell no one is around Perce in the Winter anyways.
The top part is a bastardized version of the eagle and curtain call, way too scary for me.
As for the pics, I have a few but nothing really great, ill see what I can post.
