- There was an article in Outside magazine maybe 10 years back, about
- doing outdoorsy sports in places you wouldn't expect: Windsurf Nebraska,
- Kayak Arkansas, etc. Well, one of the items was: Ice Climb Iowa. A
- guy ran a hose up an abandoned silo on his farm property, and created
- an ice tower. People drove *hours* just to climb his artificial ice
- tower! (He named it, "Where Pigeons Dare"...)

- Don't ask me why I remember this.
