A longer axe may be OK for cross-country travel and scrambling, where it's used as a cane and to provide security in low-angle climbing.  4, record 8, English, - mountain%20axe

A length of 60-70 centimeters works well in most alpine situations, where you are climbing moderately steep slopes and using the axe for self-belay and self arrest. Longer axes are better for cross-country travel and scrambling and also are good as snow anchors and for probing for cornices and crevasses.  4, record 8, English, - mountain%20axe

The British Columbia Mountaineering Club is dedicated to the enjoyment and exploration of the mountains, valleys and alpine regions of British Columbia through activities such as climbing, hiking, backpacking and ski touring. The primary mode of locomotion is pedestrian. Mechanized transport is secondary and is restricted to access only. We feel that pedestrian access allows the greatest appreciation of the mountains with the least impact. In addition to direct involvement in the outdoors through its trips and camps, the club is active in conservation, trail and hut construction, trail maintenance, mountain safety and education.  1, record 10, English, - British%20Columbia%20Mountaineering%20Club
