Description

Discover the GRIVEL Ghost EVO, a masterfully engineered ice axe designed for the discerning alpinist who demands minimal weight without compromising on performance. As a premier piece of hiking equipment, this light and minimal ice axe is the definitive choice for classical mountaineering, ski touring, and glacier walking. The Ghost EVO is presented here in its versatile adze version, ready for any challenge the mountains present.
At the heart of the Ghost EVO´s design is its incredibly low weight, tipping the scales at a mere 309 grams (10.9 oz). This feather-light construction significantly reduces fatigue on long ascents and makes it an almost unnoticeable addition to your pack, a critical advantage on demanding ski tours and technical climbs. Despite its lightness, it delivers the robust performance and security you expect from GRIVEL.
The axe features a slightly curved shaft, a design perfected for both comfort and utility. This curvature provides an optimal angle for efficient self-arresting, giving you the confidence to move securely on steep snow and ice. The shaft is paired with a classic spike at the base, ensuring deep and reliable penetration when plunging the axe for stability on soft snow.
A standout innovation is the revolutionary G-Bone shaft. This unique design incorporates special side grooves along its length, a brilliant engineering solution that allows for higher resistance and rigidity while using less material, thus reducing the overall thickness and weight. Beyond its structural strength, the G-Bone profile guarantees a superb, ergonomic grip along the entire shaft, providing enhanced handling and control whether you´re holding it by the head, mid-shaft, or preparing for a plunge.
Comfort during long glacier traverses is paramount. The Ghost EVO addresses this with a thoughtfully designed ergonomic blade. The head of the axe is shaped to fit comfortably in your hand, reducing strain while carrying it in the classic self-arrest grip position for extended periods.
Built for a wide range of alpine pursuits, this ice axe is your trusted tool for everything from glacier walking and classical mountaineering to more technical objectives and ambitious ski touring adventures. Its impeccable construction and thoughtful design provide the reliability needed when you´re high above the treeline.
