General Mountaineering Axe
By Sean Chism
Ranked #425 - Backcountry Snowboarding

This is great axe for general mountaineering. It is light enough to carry it on long approaches, but will get the job done when you need it. Great for climbing snow, and crossing glaciers... Everything except technical climbing. I would recomend purchasing a leash, but don't get the axe with the grip that comes with the leash. The grip will make it harder to plunge the axe into the snow, and will just get torn to hell with regular use.
