Cody 2026 Part Two: The Main Vein (WI3+, III, 1500′), Moonrise (WI5, II, 500′) and Too Cold To Fire (WI4, II, 300′) – Cody, WY (Jan 27-30, 2026)

The Main Vein is considered one of the top ten ice routes in North America, with 900 feet of technical ice climbing connected by a snaking ice hose in a dramatic gash canyon. Moonrise is an uber-classic three pitch WI5, and Too Cold To Fire is a unique and novel two pitch WI4.
