Frost is not a hindrance
For ice climbers frost is not a hindrance.
Three climbers storm icy wall in the Canadian Rockies
Anna Edwards (Anna Edwards), Daily Mail
Fans of extreme sports are not afraid of the cold - they themselves have icy nerves that allow them to do such ascent, where the slightest mistake threatens to collapse or breakdown.
Exciting routes have been laid in the Canadian Rockies Jen Olson (Jen Olson), John Walsh (Jon Walsh) and Magda Kosior (Magda Kosior), for which the conditions treacherous climbing - not an obstacle to achieving the goal.
Each ascent takes four to six hours. All three should be extremely assembled and ready for any surprises.
Any little thing can make them vulnerable. Falling ice damage cords and rough handling ice axes and crampons, weather changes, and even avalanches - all this you need to keep in mind.
Each route offers something unique: from otherworldly forest of stalactites and stalagmites on the "Neolithic" (Neolithic) to dagger icicles "Very large droplets" (The Real Big Drip).
Jen, a resident of Canmore (Canmore) in Alberta, Canada, said: "Types of magical and wonderful there - but hard routes.
"On the" Neolithic "you keep all your weight on your hands for a long period of time, which is not in place. And you have to keep moving to cling to and not fall ».
Adventurny photographer Paul Pryde (Paul Pride), covered the expedition in February this year, adds: "There is a difference of opinion as to what is more difficult - or ice-climbing.
Personally, I think that the ice is much more unstable: year after year, it looks and feels different. Ice climbing usually implies more severe climatic conditions. Not to mention the fact that the ice melts and breaks.
And when photographing ice climbing - it's a real challenge for you and your equipment.
Frosty air, wet icicles, snow squalls in the face - these are just some of the problems faced every day, hanging on a lanyard or sitting on the hillside waiting for the right shot.
But there are colors and types - there are none anywhere else. Therefore, mountaineering and ice climbing - my favorite topics ».
