After a month in the warm Philippines, it wasn't easy to get back in winter land. Especially with minus 30 temps! Here are are a few ice climbing pics I shot while my friend Matt Maddaloni was in the area visiting his wife's family over xmas holidays. Cold temps didn't stop Matt from putting up a few new routes in the area.

The hike to Mastigouche.


Matt on a new M8 - not yet sent!


Another killer M8 mix line.






The beautiful valley of Saint - Sauveur des Monts under a very cold sky.
