Finding midweek Ouray partners before the Ice Fest

I'm planning on heading to the Ouray Ice Fest this January, and I'm considering arriving early. If I can't wrangle a partner between now and then, how difficult is it typically to find someone to climb with in the days leading up to the festival? I was thinking the tuesday-thursday beforehand, 1/6-8.

I'm a newer ice climber, so top-roping and getting mileage/experience would be my main goals.
