But it is a specialized tool built primarily for advanced mixed routes. The Fusion performs superbly on difficult climbs with sections of rock. Its sharp steel pick bites cleanly into the ice, and it can be used for hooking small rock holds and ledges while climbing. To reduce weight, the Fusion axes ($270 apiece) do not have a hammer or adze blade, which are standard features on traditional ice axes. Its exaggerated handle, for example, allows climbers to wear thin gloves and climb without leashes, which are a necessity with most ice axes but can be cumbersome on mixed climbs. The Fusion, manufactured by Black Diamond Equipment (has a radical design that bears little resemblance to the ice tools of yore. I started ice climbing more than 10 years ago, and at that time ice axes were for the most part straight-shafted, leash-equipped, bulky tools that quickly tired the arms. Though designed to perform on expert-level routes, many intermediate and beginner climbers are now purchasing this type of equipment right off the bat.

Ice climbing evolved from mountaineering, but lately the sport has taken most of its cues from rock climbing, and the gear has followed suit. For creating rope anchors, climbers use sharp-tip ice screws that are pounded and turned to thread up to six inches into solid ice. On their feet, ice climbers employ stout boots and aggressive steel spikes called crampons.

In each gloved hand, for example, the climber grips a short ice ax. Ever heard of the snow beasts? If you havenвЂ™t, it is time to finally meet them.The medium of the sport - creaking, cracking pillars and curtains of solid ice, some hundreds of feet tall - requires strange, medieval-looking equipment.
