Description

Our modern take on Chouinard's original curved-pick mountain axe, the Black Diamond Raven Ice Axe is a classic mountaineer's piolet that has been used on classic climbs the world over for decades. Now redesigned, the Raven is lighter, and sports an updated investment-cast, stainless steel head ergonomically improved for increased comfort while walking. The updated pick and adze geometry allow for more secure placements and efficient chopping, and the revamped spike adds better bite on those icy placements with improved plunge-ability. The durable aircraft-grade aluminum shaft is also improved with a trapezoidal cross-section for a more comfortable, better grip.

Lightweight Axe

Great for mountaineering and skiing. It adds very little weight to my pack and provides a comforting level of traction for steep ascents and descents.

Simple but solid

It's everything a mountaineering ice axe should be. Its lightweight but still very strong. The holes on it are really nice for attaching a lanyard if you think you might drop it too.
