Alex,
AWESOME photos! Incredible! What the heck sort of lens are you using???? Some of the best Thin Ice pix ever, not to mention all the other routes.
And P2 of Spooky (never seen a better photo angle for that thing)...that friggin' OW...I was so scared leading that thing, I tried to get my whole body in there. Almost did, too! Your photo brought it all back to me...think I need to go throw up now...thanks! :-)

L,
Thanks! Glad you like the pictures.
All were taken with either a Canon 10D or 5D and one of the following Canon lenses: 17-40 f/4L, 24-105 f/4L, 70-200 f/2.8L IS or 300 f/4L.

The Needles; golly gee, must be some of the best granite on the planet.
Let's try to keep this on the down low, 'K?
I won't tell anybody if you guys don't, hehehe.

Drew this with pen after the trip from memory. Maybe I should have put it in Sir Vival's Strangeness thread? Just thought it was interesting that I gave the dome an eye...
edit: Damn! It turned out bigger than I told it to on Photobucket. Someone's got to snoop me up on that, dude.

I see lots of faces in that thing, Buggs. Like the Needles themselves...full of "other" life.

Ibzackly L,
That place just has a powerful, "other lifely" feel to it. I gotta get back...
Glad someone else "sees" it too...

I can't let it all out at once, I'll melt into a pile like the witch on Oz.

Well, speaking of melting into a pile,
let's see how long it takes photobucket
to get this edited version over...
Check back later if it looks too normal.

Bump for kDraves since he was asking about the Needles.
Tarbuster, We're still waiting for your uber-bitchin' Needles thread! Hope you're doing well. It was so cool to see you last summer.....
