Ice Climbing Fave
By Margo Talbot
Ranked #507 - Gloves
October 24, 2009
These are easily my favorite ice climbing gloves when the temperatures demand real insulation and waterproofness. They have a removable liner that dries quickly with next-to-the-body heat when you are out on multi-day trips. I have used these extensively for ice climbing, as well as skiing to the South Pole.
