New edition of the ice climbing guide in
the Salzburg Land region
The Salzburg Land region is without doubt
one
of the absolute ice climbing top spots
in the
Alps. The region covers the most
rewarding
ice climbing in the Berchtesgadener
Land as
well as the best regions in the Land
Salzburg,
Saalbach and surroundings,
Raurisser Tal
(Raurisser valley), Tennengebirge
(Tennen
mountains) and Radstädter Tauern.
Last but not least of course the ice climbing
paradise in Gasteiner Tal (Gastein Valley).
Here,
one waterfall after the other lines the way up to
the most unique waterfall way back: the "Highlander" in Sportgastein absolutely belongs to the most impressive ice climbing in the Alpine region.
As in previous editions, the options offered by the
popular Rudolshütte are also described. The 3rd edition
has been fully revised and completed once again.
Typically Panico, the meanwhile really big part covers
a lot of accurate outline and region maps as well as
murals and action shots - and now of course also
completely available in four colours.
An absolute must for ice freaks.

Gastein's start into the ice climbing season at Sport Schober – Sports and Fashion
The Arc'teryx Test team of SPORT SCHOBER Sports and Fashion starts
into the new ice climbing season in Gasteiner Tal (Gastein Valley) in a spectacular way.
The first season target was the "Mordor" in the ice arena of Gastein Valley. Pro climbers Sepp Inhöger and Hans Zlöbl only need 3 hours to climb through the impressive ice fall measuring 300 meters in length.
A wet ice track awaits the climbers at a height of 150m where both face water cold as ice. Their hands start freezing and the situation up there
gets increasingly unpleasant. Spindrift shoots over the wall and within minutes the tour changes from business as usual into an alpine challenge.
The outfit remains waterproof, not even a drop of water penetrates their Arc'teryx Gore Tex wear. When only the best is good enough, Arc'teryx.
