WOMEN JOIN THE ULTRALIGHT PARTY

Ladies looking to crush off long traverses and race up ski-mountaineering peaks have a new tool, the Scarpa F1 LT WMN. Until now the under-a-kilo F1 only came in a men’s last. The new women’s iteration has a 100-flex rating, weighs only 930g and brags a 72-degree range of motion. $999; scarpa.com
