While the real ice climbing season is at least six weeks away, there is always ephemeral early ice climbing to be had up in Huntington Ravine on the side of Mount Washington. As the Harvard Cabin caretaker in the mid 1970s I remember fondly those late October mornings placing my tools, afternoons splitting wood, and reading in a quiet and empty cabin at night. As per the picture, the conditions look pretty darn good for October 10!
