Winter or Alpine climbing can be a dangerous game so getting the right boot and crampon combination is vital to help you get to the top of your chosen routes safely. The type of climbing crampon you need is going to be determined by the type of boot you have or intend getting and the standard of winter or alpine routes you intend climbing. Here at LD Mountain Centre we can help and advise you regarding climbing boot and crampon compatibility so that you can make the right choice from brands like Grivel and Black Diamond. Remember anyone venturing out into the hills in snowy conditions should carry crampons and an ice axe and know how to use them!
