[pct-l] Ice Axe

[J M]

Thanks for that comment! I am planning my first hike of the PCT and quite 
frankly I'm overwhelmed with the information that each prep decisions brings me. 
Over and over again there is weight, strength, super fibers, old school, new 
school, green, not green, vegan, high calorie, gas, liquid, durability, price, 
height, width... and on and on and on........

Really what it boils down to is - will this work and keep me from and 
embarrassing demise. I mean, would you laugh if I asked you if this Ice Axe 
makes my butt look big?

A lady came up to me on the street and pointed at my suede jacket.  'You know a 
cow was murdered for that jacket'? She sneered. I replied in a psychotic tone, 
'I didn't know there were any witnesses. Now I'll have to kill  you too.'

I used a BD Raven through the Sierra this year, and I didn't die.  That's the 
primary criteria, right?

Anyone have/use a Black Diamond Rave or Raven Ultra?  Good? Bad?
