Black Diamond Contact Crampons
Designed for ice and snow travel, the lightweight Black Diamond Contact crampon is ideal for mountaineers, skiers and hikers. Its stainless steel construction won't rust and avoids environmentally toxic coatings that wear off in the mountains. The compact, 10-point design offers easy walking, while the fast-adjust attachment system accommodates almost any footwear. ABS plates included.
A perfect general mountaineering crampon that will work well not only with mountaineering boots but ski boots and overboots as well. These crampons have been a stand-by for Whittaker Mountaineering for many years. They will translate well from Mt. Rainier to other mountaineering pursuits.

This is the best all around, general mountaineering crampon. I've worn these all over the world. These are great for climbers of every level, a simple binding system that works with a wide range of boots and moderately aggressive front point, perfect for glacier walking.
