Oh okay that makes sense. I just assumed you were experienced since you didn't make the typical rookie mistake of repeatedly kicking or swinging your points in. I did think it odd that nobody seemed to test their placements...now I know why...enlightening :)
Ice Climbing is quite the rush.. though it is freezing.

Why would a bunch of apparently experienced ice climbers waste time top roping an ice cliff on a glacier?

only our guide was experienced, we 2 have never done any ice climbing (or much climbing at all )
but thanks for thinking we were.

ObscureUserName you need to chill!
The dudes are just having fun.
I've been climbing since 1994 and prefer top rope to using questionable screws as personal choice & it
has nothing to do with the opinions of jerkoffs!
