During our brief stop in Conway for the ice festival we heard a great site called Willoughby. Whoever described it as a must of ice climbing in the U.S.. As it was a road going up to Canada we decided to spend a few days in the area and explore this beautiful site.
The site consists in several areas, all along the lake Willoughby. Our stay was marked by constant bad weather, so that one day we decided to turn back and laze around and relax.
The first day we have a little prevaricated trying to find their way among all the fine lines that come down from the cliff and we finally got the Crazy Diamond, 4 + / 70m, the only free online on Sunday afternoon.
The following day the group split, Richard and I have attached Promenade 5 + / 120m, shot more beautiful than the increasingly steep as you climb.

Despite Repentance and Remission had left their mark on our forearms, fell from Promenade decide to go on a speed ascent of The Last Gentleman 5/120m...ecco a mix of pictures of our climb and the rest of the group:
