Photo Gallery: Returning to Cody, Wyoming for Ice Climbing Adventures
Good temps and an opening in my schedule meant a return trip to Cody, Wyoming. Temps were perfect and ice was fat!
During 6 days of climbing with Jon and a number of other partners, we got in about 40 pitches, including 3 first ascents. When you add up the grades as points, we scored about 108. Not bad! Full tick list can be found at the bottom of this post.
