Talk:Ice screw

Axe?
Does it belong in the Axes category? Is it an axe at all? Luis Dantas 23:54, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Don't think so..... --68.221.127.112 (talk) 21:44, 6 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Definitely not. Not even close to an axe.  Jim Heaphy (talk) 00:22, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Climb? or is it Climber?
Is the word climb supposed to be climber in the first sentence??? It doesn't make sense to me with the word climb in it..... --68.221.127.112 (talk) 21:44, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

I suggest that the text be rewritten in English :D — Preceding unsigned comment added by 135.196.5.146 (talk) 13:01, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Screws that aren't screw in but are screwed out
The text says the pound-ins are not screwed in, but are unscrewed. I believe that some pound-in may have internal threads for this purpose but in the USA they often use lengths of cheap electrical conduit pipe as pound-ins (perhaps left in-situ?).

How about mentioning Warthogs?

Suggest adding cross-reference to other ice anchors, such as stakes/pickets, ice bollards and deadman/snow flukes.
