Note for Jan 22, 05: - First lead on ice. 3*c for the day. We set up shop Friday night in the Evan Thomas parking lot and hit the trail at 11:00am Saturday. There was 3 other vehicles other than ours in the parking lot so we hoofed the approach to find Chantilly Falls open. We climbed it in two pitches. The first 50m is easy rambling. The second pitch is harder than the first. Rapelled in two pitches off trees. Later we took a hike to the base of Snowline/Moonlight and set a 30m toprope on Snowline until about 9PM when we decided to pack up. Rapelled off an abalokov.
