No one helped me in my previous thread,

What kind of belaying device is needed for ice climbing?

Also I STRUGGLE TO MAKE DECISIONS, should I go in the morning or afternoon.

I am a beginner.

This is very important to me and is a once in a year and also probably life time event. For example do you think the ice would be different earlier in the day and is that better for a beginner? Would the instructors be better during the first lesson or second? THANKS.
