Taking footage from the film 'A la conquete des cimes', this instructional film distributed for the home market as a Pathe Baby film in two reels, makes a presentation of the mountaineering equipment and techniques. The film starts with a mountaineer wearing double socks and nailed boots; then he makes a demonstration of the rock climbing and rappeling technique. In the second reel two climbers show us the use of crampons and ice axe and the way to progress in the glacier.
