The facts at a glance
Edelrid Drift
The Edelrid Drift is the perfect ice axe for anyone who wants to shed every unnecessary gram on their mountain adventures. Thanks to its ultralight design with an aluminum shaft, it’s the ideal companion for ski touring, hiking, and alpine climbing—activities where the ice axe doesn’t need to be in constant use but should still be within easy reach. With a compact length of 45 cm, the Drift can be easily stowed in a backpack.
The ice axe stands out thanks to its ergonomic shape and sandblasted surface, which ensure a comfortable and secure grip. The grooves in the lower part of the shaft provide additional grip, which is particularly advantageous when striking. The sturdy 4-mm pick, made of corrosion-resistant steel, penetrates hard snow and ice effortlessly, while the shovel ensures high efficiency when striking. Convenient carabiner loops at the head and shaft end enhance the Drift’s versatility.
A spike-like tip with an integrated cap prevents snow from entering and provides additional stability. The Edelrid Drift combines functionality with a lightweight design that performs exceptionally well on even the most demanding mountain tours.
