So I think I want to mooch about some more in the white stuff this winter.
Last year I managed a bit of walking and a couple of Grade 1 gullies and this summer did a bit in the Alps, all of which I only needed one axe for.

I currently have a DMM raptor. For a second axe should I just opt for the same but with a hammer? Or would something more technical be worth investing in? I doubt I'll be attempting anything too technical this year, just finding my feet, but next year ...

Thanks people.

A second hand Raptor might be a good idea, then sell the pair next year if you decided to "upgrade".
