CAMP USA Corsa Ice Axe description Ski mountaineers and other alpine travelers needed an ultralight mountaineering axe, so Camp created the 7.2-ounce Corsa Ice Axe. No that's not a typo, this thing only weighs 7.2 ounces. The key to this ice axe's low weight is all-aluminum construction. Although the Corsa Ice Axe isn't the tool of choice for steep alpine or ice climbing, the aluminum pick gets the job done well on hard neve snow and during mellow glacier travel. Strap this Camp ice axe to your pack for your next technical ski tour, and it will be ready to provide extra purchase for the sketchy traverse into the couloir. | Bottom Line: Travel lighter on your next ski mountaineering trip with the Camp Corsa Ice Axe. |
Wont Rust
Michael Kisow: 
While ski touring this axe fell off my pack. I found it months later after the snow melted up in a tree . NO RUST. This is the perfect axe to bring when part of you feels like you don't really need to bring one.
Perfect for UL Excursions
starkat:
Obviously, you wouldn't wanna use an axe this light for ice climbing or hardcore snow travel, but as a general-use ultra-light axe, the Corsa is king. I paired this with a simple leash I made from webbing with two loops, and it's perfect. Super light, dependable, and the tip seems to keep an edge pretty well. I'd also recommend this as a backup axe for those of you that are into snow climbing.
