Our friend, photographer Hayk Barseghyan, had found this amazing part of Akhuryan gorge, and suggested it to us for ice climbing. 

   After receiving the pics of the frozen artificial waterfall from Hayk on Dec 30th, with the Armenian Alpine Club members we decided to make a New Year present ourselves and we went to make the First Ascent of it. Hayk led us to spy the gorge for other smaller ice formations, and we found those promising too.
