Mikko making his way up on the leftern line on toprope

Mikko toproping the leftern drip on the Right Slab in Nuuksio left ice climbing area. This fall doesn't form well enough to allow leading every year. Also even if the drip forms you still have to solo it to nearly half height in order to reach thick enough ice for stubbie screws, near the end there is usually enough ice fro 16 to 18 cm screws.
