Ice partner for thanksgiving. Cody beartooths hyalite

Hey folks, I have a four day weekend off work and Im trying to get out on some ice or mixed routes. Any takers?

How about Sinks, or plugging some gear on the tower?

I'll go climb sinks with you if you give me Cassidy!

Hey Will, I just sent you a PM

I'm in Bozeman and have a similar schedule. Give me a shout about which days and which routes.

Keaton, Anything in around the Bitterroot yet? I have a friend in Missoula I want to drag out onto ice this weekend.

Looking at pine creek, east/wext rosebud, Beehive, Hyalite, Cody, but Im unsure on stability of development. Anyword on formed lines?

There are only a few routes in right now. I think this next week of colder temps should bring in a lot more. Right now, the main ice is in the Beartooths and at the Sphinx. I'm not sure about Cody or Bitterroots.

Thanks for the update. I haven't climbed in either of those ranges. Is there a good source for conditions online?

There is a Facebook page, Missoula Climbing Community. That will have occasional updates, but generally there isn't much info out there because there just aren't a whole lot of ice climbers in the area.

So mixed routing?

I just wanted to chime in that I was hoping to dust off the tools and head north from colorado sunday through friday if there is any inkling of ice. I am interested in Cody, Cooke City, Pine Creek, Hyalite, etc and might be based around Billings. Happy to just take my tools for a walk if there are rumblings of high country ice. Pretty moderate climber but happy to belay those who want to try hard. Keep me in mind! -Max

Howdy all,

I posted a pic of Ice Dragons in the other Beartooth thread.
Get it!
