Post-Apocalyptic Ice Climbing
It looks like The North Face had a hand in building this enormous indoors snowcone for ice climbers to play on. A couple clocks for timing means that people were likely racing up this thing. I’m not sure where the picture was taken, but I think it’s clear what we’ve uncovered—it’s a Lionheart-style underground ice racing tournament run by rich people who gamble on the outcome. Either that or a water main broke inside an abandoned mall in North Dakota and the locals started climbing it (and then TNF swooped in with some banners).
Thanks Tristan

Great, except that i’ve lived in North Dakota my whole life and there are no malls over 1 story here…that was actually off of UND’s new parking ramp
