Climbing Gear

Strong and compact, the Wild Country Session Quickdraw is a no-brainer for beta burns and redpoint attempts. Equipped with a slim, textured dogbone, this 'draw doesn't crowd our harness yet still provides easy handling. The rope-end 'biner features a bent gate and retainer for quick clips through the crux, while the rounded basket reduces wear on our rope.

When your protection options are limited to a horizontal crack or a sparse spattering of solution pockets, turn to the Camp USA Tricam Evo Set for secure, confidence-inspiring placement. Featuring a new design that uses three placement nodes instead of the traditional two, Tricam Evos provide additional stability in cammed placements. Plus, the stiff sewing on the sling allows for easier one-handed placements.

There is nothing like bagging a peak and skiing down afterward, but to do that, we need technical gear to help us accomplish our goals. The C. A. M. P USA Corsa Alpine Ice Axe is a technical ski mountaineering axe that we trust to help us get to the top of the mountain. The minimalist design makes for a lightweight and versatile ice axe, helping us shed weight and allowing for the axe to be used in technical climbing. The chromoly steel pick is super durable and is slightly angled for better penetration into the snow, and the hollow aluminum shaft is durable, lightweight, and has a machined grip for weight savings and a carabiner hole for a leash.

Design and Details Hyperlight ice axe for glacier travel and ski mountaineering Nylon spike plug keeps snow out of the shaft Machined grip for good handling

Petzl designed the Stop Descender to make long, single-rope rappels easier and more comfortable, offering reliable on-rope control and ease of use. The self-braking function makes it convenient to stop and hold your position on the rope, simply by letting go of the handle. Once you do this, the internal cam pinches the rope and stops your descent, leaving you free to rest or check out your surroundings. When used in conjunction with an ascender and foot loop, you can also use the Stop to ascend short distances up the rope.

The Boa Climbing Rope has been Edelrid's best-seller for seasons because it's so versatile for beginner sport climbers and advanced trad climbers.
