I am pretty new to Backcountry skiing but I purchased G3 skins while my buddy purchased BD skins and I have had way better luck with grip and glide. The G3s seem to be better overall and still stick fairly well when cold, while my...

I started backcountry skiing in the Wasatch Mountains this season. My friend talked me into buying all the gear and getting out there with him. I have done a lot of reading about backcounty safety and plan on taking the UAC class next...

Snowbird! I would take the tram to the top and ski Cirque Traverse to Wilbere Bowl or Mach Schnell. Its not the most vertical feet or the craziest run, but its a run a really enjoy! Pretty much any double black diamond is going to be...
