Ice climbing in 18 Mile Creek & Hiking in Zoar Valley
Sunday, January 6th, 2008A couple weeks ago a co-worker of mine, Rob, asked me a couple questions about work. While we’ve both been at UB for a while, up until recently we’d been in different groups within our department & hadn’t talked much. I’d heard from another co-worker of mine that Rob was into the outdoors and rock/ice climbing - eventually we ended up talking about Zoar Valley, how I’d like to explore more of it & how he was hoping to find some frozen waterfalls he’d seen pictures of. We started looking through maps & I sent him some photos of some falls & ice I’d seen while out a couple weeks ago in 18 Mile Creek at a place a friend of mine from high school, Brady, showed me.
The falls from 18 Mile Creek interested Rob, so we headed out there bright and early yesterday morning to scout/potentially do some climbing & then the same in Zoar Valley.
