Slovenia: Ice Climbing Course


AO Tržič organized Ice Climbing Course in Mlačca, near Mojstrana, and we, trainees, joined. First a little bit of theory and later live attempts.

Demonstration how to fix an Ice Screw

 V-Thread (also known as the "Abalakov" anchor, named after a Russian climber who popularised the technique)

And the second one. Thank you Grega for the gear!

The course finished in early afternoon and we covered many topics: movement in ice, anchorages in the ice (for ascends and descends), ice tools.
