The rock may brake to which you are holding or to which you have placed protection causing you to fall or causing your protection to pull out from the rock. As you climb you may pull out protection from the rock. You will experience cuts from holding on to the rock. You may also experience rope burns from handling the rope. You may experience Ice Climbing or moving across snowfields on your trip.
Ice Climbing is a technical activity involving the use of ice axes and crampons.
Ice axes must be used properly to be effective and to prevent injury to you or other people. Crampons have sharp points on the bottom and front of the boot. These points are dangerous to you and other people. Make sure you understand how to walk in crampons before doing so. Ice Climbing involves cold, water and ice on the vertical.
