Howdy all
I'm contemplating a move to Bend for the next 8 months or so but I'm hoping to climb a bunch of ice/alpine stuff in preparation for a trip to Alaska in the spring. What is the proximity of good, plentiful ice to Bend? I'm thinking less than a five hour drive away. I'm also hoping for a big trip to Cody or Canmore but would like to be able to get out for the weekends as well. Thanks in advance for any info

Cheers
Mark
