An excellent resource for ice climbing! Concise and clear, provides all the essential knowledge. Also provides further references for subjects not covered. Great book.

Great book for info on ice climbing. The most valuable part of the book i found was the section where testing was done on protection in different ice conditions. Highly recommend this book to any climber planning to embark on the icy road, or for any ice climber wanting to learn more info.

I've been wanting to ice climb for quite some time now, i got this book as a gift, and it is wonderful. a great no bull guide to getting started, from gear to techniques. if you want to get into ice climbing BUY THIS BOOK.

I am an amateur rock climber interested in pursuing ice climbing. This book presents an overview of the rudimentary knowledge necessary to become involved in ice climbing. I now know the necessary equipment, tactics, hidden dangers, and mountaineering concepts which will enable me to go on a trip with an experienced climber and attempt some basic ascents.
