CAMP USA XLC 490 Crampon



Sooooooo lightweight.....
Obviously these crampons aren't made for blue ice, technical ice, or mixed rock & ice. They're fantastic for the occasional hard snowfield or easy glacier slog, and my back thanks me anytime I don't have to carry my steel crampons. The 370's are even lighter, but I went for the more flexible binding system. My only complaint is that the heel plate is a little narrow - it fits all my climbing boots well, but I have some wider-heeled light hikers that I occasionally wear for comfort on climbs that are mostly trail or rock, and the crampons don't fit the wide heel. Overall though, these were a great pickup!
