man_vrs_mountain Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 can you rent ice tools and all that you would need to ice climb anywhere? or do you have to purchase them Quote
DPS Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 You can rent tools, crampons and boots. Harness, ropes, screws you gotta buy or borrow. Quote
dbb Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 pro mountain sports and feathered friends rent them too. Quote
DPS Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 don't forget the helmet. Â Don't neeed a helmet, I got a hard, hard head. Quote
Bogen Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 Don't know what it's like down there, but I have never been able to rent technical axes in BC. Quote
jchaney Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 You can rent technical tools at Mountain Magic in Banff. Great if you want to give leashless tools a try or are new to ice climbing and want to sample tools before shelling out your hard earned cash. Quote
