Product Description

When the temps are down and the ice is in, pull on the Black Diamond Xenos Harness and head for the nearest mixed cave or frozen flow. Thanks to Black Diamond’s Kinetic Core Construction that evenly distributes weight along the harness, the Xenos provides all day comfort without excess bulk and padding. Six ice clipper slots and four molded gear loops neatly organize all your screws and draws, while the pre-threaded Speed Adjust buckles on the waist and legs accommodate varying layers.

Features

Material: [Shell] water-resistant nylon taffeta Padding: Liquid-crystal polymer, foam Adjustability: Speed buckles Gear Loops: 4 standard, 6 ice clipper slots Haul Loop: Yes (12kN-rated) Weight: 1lb 2oz (460g) Recommended Use: Ice & mixed climbing Manufacturer Warranty: 1 Year

""You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know.""   --Rene Daumal
