Spring is here in Oregon and it's time to get it on with the Volcanos. Looking to pick up some sharp metal things first...

Mountaineering axe: straight shaft, steel, 50-60cm. BD Raven is a good example. Would also consider any type of random, cheap axe, as I'll eventually need two.

Standard crampons: Steel, moderately technical, plastic clip in back. BD sabretooth or Grivel G12's are good examples.

Voile ski crampons: 110mm

Thanks. The beater and cheaper the better, as this stuff holds up pretty good.
