Ice Climbing Event 2004, Argentière

The 14th international Ice Climbing Event 2004 takes place in Argentière, Fournel from 7-11 January 2004.
The 14th Ice Climbing Event got off to a cold start in France's Argentière - La Bessée yesterday morning. The famous Fournel international meeting, which continues until the 11th of January, attracts up to 800 climbers from 30 different countries and is therefore rightly considered one of the most important climbing meetings in Europe and further afield.

As ever, participants are transported by mini-buses to the 300+ icefalls in the morning, while the afternoon programs within the ICEPO village include workshops, gear tests, a selection of the best Banff mountain films and, new for this edition, the Drycontest and Dynotrophy competitions.

The get-together is obviously all about having fun, climbing ice and meeting other climbers from completely different backgrounds. And seeing some of the world's most famous in action, including Arnaud Guillaume, Christophe Moulin and François Damilano...
