Ice climbing - Having fun when outside it's freezing

11 février 2019

Ice climbing is considered to be the most challenging form of mountaineering. It is also the perfect preparation for big alpine activities.

In addition to the technical skills, it is primarily the correct evaluations and assessments of the ice and conditions that make a relatively safe yet exciting sport out of the adventure. Assessing the risk of avalanche and good adapted rope technology are also a part of it.

It is a very technical form of mountaineering, so it is important to have the right equipment. There have been many advancements in this sector in recent years and it pays off to get a tip or two from a pro.
