ice pick
walking up volcan villarrica was the first time i'd properly hiked on snow - to the extent where i had to wear cramp-ons on my feet for grip, and carry and ice pick to dig into the snow in case i fell. i found it all a little uncomfortable, but it was a good experience. descending the volcano was an even better experience though. instead of slowly and carefully putting one foot in front of the other, we all sat on little plastic seats and slid down through the snow. it was so much fun, and so much easier than the hiking that preceded it. i heard that if i was there a few weeks earlier then i'd have been able to snowboard down, which would have been awesome. sliding was definitely the next best way of getting to the bottom.
