http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html We had planned to climb a peak but with low temps and high winds in the high country we settled on a ice climb. We drove up Clear Creek but all of the regular formations were bone dry. We continued up I-70 and climbed on the Silver Plume Ice flow. The ice was in relatively good conditions but over the next week or two it should fatten up nicely. EJ and I each did 4 or 5 passes on top rope and enjoyed the sun and ‘warm’ temps. At one point there were 6 parties on the flow which limited our route variations but a good early season warm up. http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#0 9c24470b-617e-4e40-983b-8e0a6f6b90ca http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0003.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0003.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">Right Side Flow</p></div></div> http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#1 c26b8afc-e617-4195-9e38-97e8f978595e http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN1410.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN1410.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">Blue Skys</p></div></div> http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#2 fffb9215-f983-4819-ad60-d252cb7d0452 http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0002.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0002.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">EJ at the Base</p></div></div> http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#3 d1993d97-d185-4815-b463-80536eded1e7 http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0005.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0005.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">Fellow Climbers</p></div></div> http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#4 ed936407-ffff-4ca3-b218-c975ab7ff1df http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN1405.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN1405.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">Wes Climbing</p></div></div> http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#5 179d6c17-8ce6-46b4-b3f3-5fa5b4da4649 http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0010.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN0010.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">EJ Climbing</p></div></div> http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume.html#6 42ad79c6-5c05-4a43-b871-a763143e74c9 http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN1413.jpg?derivative=thumb http://www.bradshawclimbing.com/Bradshaw_Climbing/Silver_Plume_files/Media/DSCN1413.jpg?derivative=micro <div style="padding: 0px; " class="image_cluster_layout_style_default_External_611_16"><div class="image_cluster_layout_style_default"><p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; padding-top: 0pt; " class="paragraph_style_2">Wes Rappelling</p></div></div>
