The Blue Ice Harfang Alpine is the most compact technical 12-point crampon ever made, for technical alpine climbing and general mountaineering.
This patented concept design by Blue Ice is based on a central textile strap that connects the front and back sections and allows it to mount in a suitable position based on the application or geometry of your boots. Capable of accommodating a wide range of boot sizes. The flexible strap connecting the system reduces bulk and offers superior compactness while providing remarkable precision and comfort. The front rail is asymmetrical to give you maximum performance, balance and fit.
A simple micro adjustment dial on the heel pivot allows you to fine-tune the crampon on the boot. Because of the interchangeable front-toe bails, the Harfang Alpine can be easily fitted to any boot or ski boot with a heel welt and includes two front bail systems: a compact full auto and semi-auto which are easily interchangeable. Watch the video below to learn how to swap these out.
Supplied with a tidy compact storage bag which can neatly be carried on your harness for quick access when crossing mixed terrain. Or safely stored in your rucksacks.
Uses: mountaineering, racing and ski touring, winter fell walking.
