We are on a ski trip right now to Nelson and moving on to Roger's pass but I would love to get out climbing. Does anyone know of ice near these areas? there doesn't seem to be lots of info or ice around.

Thanks in advance
Tim

There is a fair bit of ice near Revelstoke but the best (only) online resource was Al Dunham's Revelstoke ice page which no longer exists. Climbs at Three Valley Gap are listed in the West Coast Ice guide (1st ed.). Some of the routes around Revy require canoe crossings of rivers to access the ice, as seen here:

Thanks for the link, we had previously checked it out but I was hoping there might be something else and I unfortunately forgot my canoe...

Thanks again
Tim
