Climbing Icebergs

Ice-climbing-victory

These folks went up to Newfoundland to climb icebergs. Their story is here. I like this quote:

“I realized that what I had to do was to fully commit and quit worrying about how dangerous this all seemed. Hesitation and fear was not what was needed to mount this iceberg.”

And this one:

“Each swing still made that familiar high pitch crack from the 15,000-year old high pressured air trapped in the ice.”
