Climbing in a moulin, glacial meltwater sinkhole, on the Mer de Glace. H20 in three states; ice, water, perspiration! This simultaneous coexistence that makes ice climbing so awesome.

Perfect. Cold. Elated. Fatigued. A smorgasbord of emotions and a memory that will last a lifetime. Magical moments on the roof of the Alps.

Panorama from the summit of Dufourspitze, across a magnificent sea of cloud. Not a word spoken, just a breath of wind, as climbers silently take in the special moments on the summit. Just wow!!!

Lightweight Boot Revolution

What boots for mountaineering? Lines are blurred, rule books are ripped up, and the weight plummets. Is thermal capacity loss outweighed by technical performance & less weight?
