[pct-l] Whippet/Ice axe

[mlissner at pitzer.edu (Mike Lissner)]

On the subject of the whippet, I figured I may as well throw this out there: my full length Camp XLA 210 ice axe weighs in at 10.52 oz (298.1 g) (w/strap), and I believe the Cassin Ghost is about the same. The only problem with these is if you are tall, you won't be able to find them in your size, but for me that's less of a drawback than the questionable strength of the whippet.
