Bozeman Building Massive Ice Climbing Facility

By Rocky Thompson on August 29th, 2011

Bozeman, Montana will become the new training grounds for ice climbers seeking to enter the 2014 Olympics in Sochi with the construction of the first UIAA approved ice climbing facility in North America. The design made my local students incorporates old lift towers from Bridger Bowl, and during summers the spot will be used as a venue for outdoor concerts. Check out Bozeman Ice Tower for a look at the design. It looks cool, but I’m going to keep holding out for ice fishing to be an Olympic event.

    Can anybody read the info on the “hops production” in the lower right of the winning design’s infographic? I’m wondering how much the “design + hops = beer” influenced the committee?
