Yesterday The Adventure Life brought us that great mountain biking video that was a perfect way to usher in spring here in the Northern Hemisphere. Today, they're back with another cool video, this time capturing Marmot athletes Fabrizio Zangrilli and Jim Nowak as they go ice climbing in the Ouray Ice Park in Colorado. Impressive stuff. These guys look totally at ease on that frozen waterfall. Ouray Ice Climbing 2010 from sinuhe xavier on Vimeo .
