An expert instructional how-to guide featuring essential skills and techniques for travel across steep snow and glaciers.
Through clear text and detailed step-by-step photos, IFMGA-certified guide Ian Nicholson introduces the hazards climbers face and describes everything they need to know when scaling snow-covered mountains. This includes foundational ropework; the tools of the trade (ice axes, crampons, harnesses, snow pickets, and more); basics of footwork; essential techniques for moving on snow and ice; trip planning and navigation; rigging ropes; building anchors; belaying; rappelling; self-rescue tips and techniques; and more.
Beyond the fundamentals, Glacier Climbing & Crevasse Rescue dives deep into methods for rescuing a climber who has fallen into a crevasse, how skiers and snowboarders can approach such a scenario, and the hazards associated with expeditions. Sidebars by expert contributors highlight key takeaways from real-life stories, sharing valuable, life-changing lessons they've learned.
