When the gully gets steep, the steep gets Petzl's Gully Ice Axe. Petzl made this axe light and compact for minimalist mountaineers and skiers. The tapered, steel pick works with the bent shaft's adjustable Trigrest handle to provide versatile purchase on any angle. There are options for an adze or a hammer for cleaning holds or setting pitons. The beveled spike helps prevent tearing up backpacks.

When we set out in search of lesser-known skintracks and untracked backcountry lines, the Black Diamond Ascension Skins are our ticket to bottomless turns. Their newly re-worked nylon material is lighter and more packable than ever, while the tried-and-true adjustable tip loops and STS tail clips ensure a solid hold on your skis. The STS tail clip provides 10cm of adjustability, allowing you to switch the skins between different skis in your quiver.

You might opt for bluebird days to tackle steeper ski mountaineering lines, but you don't necessarily have to; the Blue Ice Bluebird Ice Axe, on the other hand, is an absolute necessity for such routes. This classic axe boasts a hot-forged head and adze that lend an edgy grip on icy terrain. The straight shaft has a sandy feel to give your gloves the grip they need, and the angled spike provides extra purchase during glacier crossings.

Equip your climbing quiver with the versatile and affordable BallNutz Set by Trango. These sliding ball-and-ramp pieces lie between active and passive protections, and they fit in places that cams and stopper can't, like parallel cracks and thin fissures. With more placement options than a nut and a smaller price tag than any spring-loaded camming device, you simply can't go wrong with the BallNutz.

Out of all the climbing ropes Mammut makes for alpine climbing, the Alpine Dry Rope is the thickest, burliest option that still packs small and doesn't weigh you down on long approaches. Its 9. 5mm diameter has the same feel and specs as most skinnier sport climbing ropes, and it has a Dry treated sheath and core for UIAA-certified water absorption that excels in alpine environments. The Dry treatment also enhances abrasion-resistance for an equally convenient performance on rock and ice.
