People who know me know that one of my pet peeves is the entire concept of ice climbing. What a bogus bunch of nonsense. What bugs me about it is how much outdoorwear companies focus on it. You want a Gore-Tex jacket? 99 times out of 100, it was designed for ice climbing. I've never seen anyone climb an icefall. Sure, maybe it happens, but I have a hard time believeing that it happens even 1% as often as people ride a bike in the rain. When this particular picture was taken I was mocking the really stupid National Geographic article about these clowns who rode across some part of Alaska in the summer. They seemed like such "rad-Mt.Dew" posers, but the final straw for me was when there was a picture of one of them "using his bike as an ice-axe". Ya, right.
