Video: May Showers




In mid-May, Nathan Smith, Liberty Mountain's Marketing Director, diehard ice climber and author of Beehive Ice along with Jake Hirschi, Liberty Mountain's Product Manager took advantage of all the rain across the state of Utah. Heading to Utah's Uinta range where the elevation turned the rain into snow, the pair were able to establish the first ascents of a handful of ice climbs. This short video documents one of the climbs completed that day--May Showers (WI4-, Reid's Peak, Uinta Range, Utah).

The Ideal Ice Climbing Kit


Ice climbing season is upon us and it’s time to gather the gear that makes a killer ice climbing kit. We asked Nathan Smith, author of Beehive Ice, A Guide to Utah's Ice and Mixed Climbs, climbing photographer, and Liberty Mountain employee to show us what’s in his ice and mixed climbing kit.
