Black Diamond Neve Pro Crampons with ABS

Count on the Black Diamond Neve Pro Crampons for solid traction on spring ski approaches or travel on snow-covered glaciers. Though not designed for ice climbing, Neve Pro Crampons clip onto ice, telemark, or AT boots to provide secure footing when you need to travel on steep, hard, spring snow. Use them to ascend the last hundred feet of ridgeline before you drop in and ski a steep couloir, or to cross the steep snow guarding your alpine rock route. At only 1lb 5.5oz, you hardly notice the Neve Pro Crampons in your pack.

Bottom Line: The Black Diamond Neve Pro Crampons give you the extra traction you need for travel on hard spring snow.

Scarpa T1 Tele boot compatible? And lightweight mountaineering

Scarpa T1 Tele boot compatible? And lightweight mountaineering boots?

Any mountaineering boot that has front and back welts is compatible with this crampon. Lightweight boots usually don't have welts, but they might. The T1 tele boots would have to be on the smaller size and they would not be "compatible" per se, but they would work. Again the tele boots would not be a bomber fit, but they would work as long as they were smaller than 28 mondo maybe!? This maybe a better question for online BC chat to get a precise answer. Good luck!

Perfect for snow climbers and skiers

I use these spikes primarily for ski mountaineering, and they fit great over my Garmont Radium boots. The lightweight and the ease of use make them a winner. I use the "anti-bot" snow deflectors to prevent snow from balling up on your crampons and that works splendidly. All in all a peefect set of mountaineering crampons for those not looking to get on the steep blue ice!

Hiking the Grand Canyone this winter. The park services suggest

Hiking the Grand Canyone this winter. The park services suggest an instep crampon, just in case of snow. Will this be too much? Not sure how well it handels on regular (not icy) surface. How hard are they to take off and then put back on?

No, this is absolutely the wrong thing to use for the Grand Canyon in winter. First, these crampons will almost definitely be incompatible with your boots (you need special, very rigid boots to use these; you'd know it if you had them). Second, crampons like these are intended for climbing mountains, glaciers, and serious ice/snow slopes (think 50 degree angles)--they're not for sporadic snow on a hiking trail.

Instead, for your type of task (snow hiking), many mountaineers swear by "Kahtoola Microspikes" as very lightweight hiking crampons. A cheaper, lower-quality alternative is "yaktrax". Do a search for either of those, and your GC trip will be awesome :)

This will be too much to wear all the time, but they go on and off easily so go for it.
