Bozeman/Cody, need partner

[yeoman]

This is my first winter out of Alaska in some time and I'm dying to get on some ice. So I'm planning something in February. Problem is most climbers in California focus on rock and have never touched ice tools (not that there is anything wrong with that) and the rest of my partners are in AK.

I recently got a copy of Winter Dance so am itching to check out that region.

Anyone want to do a week or so up that way in February?

I lead WI3 pretty comfortably and can follow much higher. 6 months of living in California has gotten me climbing rock harder than ever, so I'm hoping to up that ice grade a bit. Also have lots of newish (read easy to place)screws and a strong desire to climb a lot in a short time.

Also very interested in mixed lines, multipitch = bonus.

Hit me up and lets talk if you are interested.

Well, a rope gun partner and promising conditions have drawn me back north. Headed to Valdez in early Feb. I'll post some pics from it when I get back.
