I'm fairly new to climbing - both rock and ice. I can only afford one rope right now and looking for something that will last, as well as be good for both rock and ice. All reviews so far make it sound like a great rope for rock... can anyone speak for it on ice as well? Any suggestions for a more versatile rope would also be greatly appreciated, if the Nomad is not recommended. Thanks!

This is a great all around rope. Wouldn't hesitate to use it on anything. However, if you're going to be doing a lot of top roping, I'd suggest looking for a slightly larger diameter which will give you more durability. If you are leading/following, you'll be just fine.
