There has been a recent surge in the popularity of backcountry skiing due to open-gate policies at ski resorts, Big Mountain Freestyle Ski Films, rising lift ticket prices and advances in ski equipment. What is Backcountry Skiing? Types of Backcountry Skiing There are three main vessels for backcountry skiing: telemark (or A.T.), or split boarding. Splitboarding refers to a snowboard that is cut in half along the vertical plane. It can split apart and be worn like skis for the uphill. The bindings also rotate and unlock in the heel to make uphill travel possible. Everything locks together for downhill snowboarding turns. How do they Ski Uphill?

    Extractions: Winter transforms New England into an arctic wonderland. Even though we are located in the most populous region of the United States, winter-time snows cover-up all signs of man. It is only in the winter months that one can really experience the true essence of the mountains; for the snow has returned the wilderness to us. Storms in New England can come from any direction, but the most common ones come in from the west or northeast. Western storms can blanket most of Vermont, but still manage to miss New Hampshire. Coastal storms can immobilize southern and central New Hampshire and barely cause a wispy cloud to pass through Vermont or the northern Whites. Again the prepared skier needs to investigate carefully and not make assumptions that it is snowing equally everywhere. Low pressure centers that travel up the St. Lawrence Valley usually bring rain to New England and snow to Canada. The most powerful storms involve secondary lows on the coast that can intensify the primary low pressure system moving in from the west. These combine, by bringing down cold air from Canada and moisture up from the sea, to produce the classic New England snow storm. You need to be an investigative reporter; call your friends or ski areas in various parts of the Twin States, find out how much new snow has fallen, temperature, and a twenty-four hour forecast. Add up the inches of snow and below freezing temperature and choose the area that has the most and the coldest snow. Remember that New England weather can change dramatically. It can go from minus thirty degrees Fahrenheit to plus forty degrees in only a few hours. Rain can change to snow and back to rain again. Rain can form frozen armor over powder snow, or percolate through it and, after cold air and wind return, the snow can dry out, becoming loose and powdery.

The quiet and often untouched terrain beckons many skiers who wish to leave the lift line. Backcountry skiing is something that takes time to learn, however, and many precautions should always be taken. If you want to backcountry ski, you need to learn about avalanches and... What Are Backcountry Downhill Skis? Backcountry skiing involves using skis that work as downhill skis and cross country skis. Two styles of backcountry skiing exist - telemarking and alpine touring. The style will likely depend on whether you approach backcountry skiing from a background of cross country or downhill skiing. People with experience in cross country skiing... About Backcountry Ski Equipment Backcountry skiing is peaceful and exhilarating due to its lack of crowds. But it also is dangerous and requires specific gear. Backcountry Skiing in Canada Canada, particularly the provinces of British Columbia and Alberta, is arguably the best place in the world for backcountry skiing.
