another gripping editon

Hey all, The latest edition of Gripped is pretty badassed for those of you who ice climb, It had a lot of good articles about climbers/areas, including a great piece on Quebec. Mind you, most of the climbs listed are WIcked hard. (hahaha). Nice piece on two British climbers too, interesting how they fit two 6 + foot climbers into a 5 foot 2 mountain hardwear tent and then pitched it vertically on a cliff face. Solid.
Plus it has reports on a lot o' new loot toolwise. The new DMM tools look pretty sweet.

Definitely good info on Quebec ice and I always enjoy reading about Cool (what a great name) & Parnell's alpine adventures.

The wine reviews were a lame idea, even if they are imported by climbers.

I second this Matt. it is a good issue.

If a husband speaks in the woods, and his wife is not there to hear him...is he still wrong?

make sure you post a review of those axes after you get them. I'll be curious to see how they rate.
Does anyone know if DMM has another site than http://www.dmmwales.com? I checked there and the new axes are not on the site.
