Thread: ice axe and crampons reccomendation

Taking your boots in to get proper fitting crampons is good advice. An ice axe can be bloody dangerous unless you have it in your hands and your rifle slung across your back. If you need an ice axe when hunting then you will be way above the animals. They don't like the snow and ice any more than we do, and they can be found at much lower altitudes during winter, often quite close to where you would leave your vehicle.
