AIC Admin on Gunnysack Creek 2This information comes second hand. Would you be willing to help us get the route coordinates?
Drew on Gunnysack Creek 2The grid on the approach tab is not correct. Its about 1/4th a mile past that grid
Cody Klingman on RoadkillNot an incredibly difficult approach, but the ice itself is disappointing. A couple short steps which probably don't exceed WI2-3....
Cody Klingman on Dancin’ in the RuinsNo signs of ice in January 2021. Perhaps it doesn't always form.

Tmb on Pioneer FarmersEver been skied?
Hebrew Hammer on The CurtainI did not call any one anything. Ice grades are very problematic because its the length of vertical that matters,...

Phoebe Gilbert on Jack River FallsActive trapping on and near trail, make sure pets are leashed.
AIC Admin on Pillar of CynMany thanks. Good to have better coordinates! We will get them added to the route description.

Kakiko Ramos-Leon on Dreams of Brown MooseThis anchor has two bolts now. Right below the pins.
Elliot Gaddy on Widow Makerthe #4 cam placement I referred to in my 12/21/21 post no longer exists. Maybe there is another placement to...
Daniel Vandevort on Jack River FallsClimbed March 2022. Party of 4. Excellent climb. Recommend snow machine for easiest access, but there are usually enough well-travelled...
Hebrew Hammer on The CurtainI beg to differ. The ratings of the Delta River region ice are internally consistent. This route has been soloed...
AIC Admin on The CurtainSeems to be more of a consensus here. Rating will be adjusted. Thanks for the feedback.
David Woo on The CurtainI would agree that this climb is at least a WI4+. I found this route to be more difficult than...
Brian M Teale on Tsuri Ganethis route is 5 star rt.......unfortunate the free hanging pillar in the photo isnt formed......english translation is The Hanging Bell!...
Elliot Gaddy on Widow MakerThis route is ~40 meters long. You will not reach the ground with a 60m rope from the anchor.
Elliot Gaddy on Widow MakerA #4 BD cam is very nice for the last moves to the anchor.
S, Carl Tobin on Claim JumperI am just again on this page, a year and a half later. No, I am not suggesting a different...

Ryan Sims on Dire StraitsAnchor bolts have been placed for rappel.

AIC Admin on Claim JumperCarl, are you claiming a different name and first ascent on this route? Help us get it right.
S. Carl Tobin on Claim JumperIt was early April, I think, when Roman and I drove from Fairbanks to Sukapak for the 2nd ascent. We'd...
