Petzl Gully 45 Hammer ice axe for technical mountaineering and ski mountaineering.

The Petzl Gully 45 ice hammer is a compact and ultralight ice axe developed for technical climbing and extreme skiing on steep slopes.The Petzl brand has always focused on research, development, and innovation, and the Gully represents the evolution of the Petzl Ride.The two main modifications concern the blade and the Trigrest support. The banana-shaped blade, made of steel, is sharpened and tapered by 3 mm compared to the Ride.This modification improves penetration into the snowpack and becomes extremely effective on hard snow and ice. As a result, extraction will be facilitated.The Trigrest support, adjustable without the need for additional tools, allows for control of the hand or thumb grip in a pulling position, achieving the perfect grip required for more technical passages.The Petzl Gully offers all the advantages of a high-quality ice axe combined with a hammer head, allowing, for example, to place a piton or tighten an anchor.At the top in terms of weight, the Gully weighs only 280 g: the weight of two ice axes, one with a pick and one with a hammer, is equivalent to the weight of a single Petzl Quark.Its length of 45 cm and the pick integrated into the handle allow you to easily store it inside your backpack.Gully, a benchmark!
