Gully Hammer Ice Axe

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I used the hammer end of the Gully Hammer Ice Axe to knock in a piton on a rocky traverse mid-route, then went straight back to swinging ice without missing a beat. Having that hammer built in saved me from carrying a second tool for what turned out to be a fully mixed climb."

A true alpine line rarely stays one kind of terrain for long, and the Gully Hammer Ice Axe from Petzl is built for the moment rock interrupts ice. Picture a mixed route where a crumbling ledge forces a piton placement before the next pitch of névé, no time to dig through a pack for another tool, just one axe doing double duty.

That versatility comes from a low-profile hammer paired with the same tapered re-curve pick that sticks clean on hard ice, so a single tool covers both jobs without adding real bulk. The TRIGREST handrest drops into climbing mode with no tools needed, and a grooved shaft holds your grip through the long reach of a mixed pitch. Even fully specced for rock and ice, it stays light enough to swing all day.
