EdelridFirn Guide - Ice Axe

The Firn Guide by Edelrid is a technical mountaineering ice axe designed for high-altitude adventures, whether they are classic or challenging. Its anodized aluminum shaft is both durable and lightweight, slightly curved for an ergonomic grip, while its sandblasted and grooved surface offers optimal traction. This ice axe features a sharp stainless steel pick designed for precise placement and an ergonomic head that facilitates handling in piolet-canne mode.

The Firn Guide's I-profile pick ensures excellent torsional resistance without adding weight. Its sharp adze, with an aggressive shape, provides remarkable power, ideal for cutting steps or digging a deadman anchor. Cleverly, the center of the adze is perpendicular to the shaft, ensuring maximum efficiency with each strike. Additionally, the hole on the pick allows for easy attachment of large carabiners, making this tool indispensable for seasoned mountaineers.

Perfect for mountaineers seeking performance and safety, the Firn Guide is the ideal companion for your high-altitude adventures.
