Step 17 Ice Axe / Ice Hammer grips

Here's another for the ice climbers- slide a foot or so of this on the grips of your ice tools; give it a bit of a rub with sand paper, and shazam...you are going up.

I've climbed West of Calgary mainly, but not for quite some time now; knees and back are pretty fubar'd. Thanks for the tubular nylon comment; I'd forgotten...it's been that long!!
