Kodiak Island Ice Climbing - Deadmans Curve

Rating: WI2
Length: 10-15 meters

Lat: 57º 46.53' North
Long: 152º 27.22' West

Approach: From Kodiak, drive approximately 2 miles towards Kodiak Airport on Rezanof Drive.  Park alongside the road or of the road (where possible) near the cliffs.  Make sure to park in a location that is visible to oncoming traffic.  

Route: A small handfull of ice flows exist in this area which make it a perfect destination for ice bouldering.  If using a rope make sure to bring plenty of webbing to reach the alders above.  

Anchor: Alders can provide an anchor, but may not be readily available at very top of the ice.  Bring v-thread gear just in case.
