Nothing is lacking and nothing is superfl uous ~ Da Vinci
ANATOMICALLYCORRECT
Creating a comfortable yet lightweight harness requires a melding
of science and art that respects the needs of the climber and the
many variations of the human form. The Sama and Adjama’s waist-
belt and leg loop dimensions (width+circumference) are specifi cally
tailored to each individual size for a custom fi t. When your harness
fi ts like it was designed specifi cally for you, climbing is your only
focus. Learn more about the unique features of the Sama and
Adjama at Petzl.com

Dripping overhanging ice blue columns,
verglassed rock walls, and “bowling alley”
couloirs. A frozen playground filled with
extreme and abusive conditions. Only
those who come prepared with ice cold
determination, superior technical skills,
and a “bare bones” approach will conquer.
For your “once in a lifetime” expedition,
we designed the perfect rope - the 8.4mm
Marathon™. On the outside, the award
winning Marathon sheath. The most
durable sheath on the market, designed to
withstand the worst conditions on earth.
On the inside, DryCore™, available only on
Sterling ropes. This proprietary moisture
resistant core yarn helps to maintain the
rope’s original strength and elongation
characteristics. Finally, its light weight and
superb handling won’t slow you down for
a second. Guaranteeing that you can beat
the devil at his own game.

If you’re in a dire situation in the extreme outdoors, you can’t rely on traditional means of calling or signaling for help. Instead, equipyourself with the TerraFixTM 406 GPS I/OPersonal Locator Beacon. It takes the“search” out of search and rescue. Simplypush activation buttons and your I.D. andlocation will be transmitted through globalsatellites to the closest SAR professionals.
Your LAT/LON is added via the onboard GPS orwhen interfaced with an external GPS, narrowing
the search and dramatically decreasing theresponse time. This is the same tried-and-true technology the marine and aviationindustries have trusted for nearly 30 years,and it’s now available as a land-based
personal beacon. The TerraFixTM. Your firstchoice as a last resort.
