Maintain your breath as ice climber Jeff Mercier descends — like Dante plunged into the inferno — into the surreal azure icescape of a Chamonix moulin.
Time to start out getting amped for mountaineering season. And what higher approach than by watching the good French climber Jeff Mercer choose his approach up, down, and throughout moulins and ice caves?
All of it goes down in “Ice Hunters: Cave of Goals,” a movie from Rab Gear. You need dashing waterfalls and stomach-churning strikes? You bought it.
“It was completely psychological,” gushes Olivier Gajewski, certainly one of Mercer’s mountaineering companions within the movie.
We agree. Test it out for your self.
