Ice Climbing School
Unlike rock, we find glacial terrain only in the mountains, in some ranges. That is why the discovery of the glacier hiking, with crampons, is a very specific activity in Chamonix.
Beyond the discovery, crampon techniques are necessary in many high mountain ascents and it is very helpful to practice them regularly.
With the dramatic melting of the Glacier des Bossons, three sites are used today:
Mer de glace
Glacier d'Argentière
