* Will Gadd is an ESPN X Games and Ice World Cup winner* There are 1.1 million ice climbers in the U.S. (Outdoor Industry Association, 2001)* Seventh installment in The Mountaineers Outdoor Expert series"Mixed climbing is my favorite discipline. It's the most fun because it has the fewest rules-sort of like professional wrestling compared to boxing." So says Will Gadd, as profiled in Fifty Favorite Climbs. Here the champion ice climber presents the same techniques and veteran wisdomhe imparts to those who attend his annual clinics. These include step-by-step instructions for the swing (ice axe), the kick (footwork), and putting it all together (tracking); how to "read" ice to select your line and follow it safely; and drytool techniques for mixed climbing. Training exercises and inspirational stories complete this seminal guide. Will Gadd won every major ice competition in the world in 1998 and 1999, as well as the 2000 Ice World Cup. A resident of Canmore, Alberta, hehas written for Climbing and Rock & Ice, among other publications. Roger Chayer's photos have appeared in Rock & Ice, Climbing, Gripped, Equinox, and the Alpine Club of Canada Journal. He lives in Calgary, Alberta. Part of the Mountaineers Outdoor Expert series.

The first edition of Ice & Mixed Climbing was groundbreaking: a comprehensive instruction guide to ice and mixed climbing written by one of the sport’s premier practitioners, Will Gadd. Like its predecessor this fully revised and updated second edition features detailed instruction on technique--from the swing of the ice tool to the placement of the feet to combining actions for the greatest efficiency. New sections on climbing glacial ice and expanded discussion of dry-tool placement encourage ice and mixed climbers to get out year round, while a thoroughly revised chapter on training options help them get in top condition. Gadd has been climbing since, in his words, "dinosaurs wore crampons to Sunday school," and in this new edition he shares what you need to know to have fun while climbing ice and mixed routes.

It explains the necessary tools and equipment, and describes practice routines which will improve a climber's skills." --
