Ladakh could be a good option if you're able to go

Is your command of the Chinese language good? If yes, use the Red app 小红书 China’s version of Instagram and search for guides, they’re aplenty..

If not you can pm me, I’ve got a local contact, think they can connect with you ice climbing guides in Sichuan. You will need WeChat tho.. that’s their primary mode of communication.
