Backcountry skiing, also known as "ski touring" or "ski mountaineering" , involves skiing in natural, unmarked terrain outside of ski resorts. Skiers hike or use specialized equipment to access remote areas for untouched snow and adventurous exploration. It requires careful planning, knowledge of avalanche safety, and appropriate gear.
Backcountry skis are different from regular skis, they are specially made for skiing in places away from groomed slopes and ski resorts. These skis are built tougher and wider than regular skis, which helps them stay stable in tricky terrain like deep snow or uneven ground. They also have special bindings that allow the skier's heel to lift up, making it easier to climb uphill. So, if you love exploring the wilderness on skis, backcountry skis are the way to go!
For regular backcountry skis, you usually need special boots. But our new Snowfeet* WALKSKI Backcountry Touring Skis have special bindings. They can work with normal boots or even snowboard boots. This makes them easy to use and convenient, so you don't need specific backcountry skiing boots.
Yes, you can use backcountry skis on groomed trails, but it might not be the best choice. Backcountry skis could feel heavy and not work as well as regular cross-country skis. However, if the groomed trails have rougher sections, backcountry skis could be okay for those parts. It depends on your preference and the trail conditions.
Backcountry skiing can be fun for beginners, but it's important to learn the basics first. You need to know how to ski well and understand avalanche safety. You'll also need special gear like skis and safety equipment.
Going uphill on skis is usually done with a technique called "skinning" or using climbing skins. These are special strips that stick to the bottom of your skis, giving you grip on the snow while letting you slide forward.
In case of regular backcountry skis, you should get climbing skins but the Snowfeet WALKSKI Backcountry Skis have already built-in skin so you don't purchase additional gear.
To start your backcountry skiing journey, you'll need a few essential pieces of gear. Invest in backcountry skis, bindings, climbing skins, and boots designed for touring. Don't forget safety gear like a beacon, probe, and shovel for avalanche preparedness. It's also wise to carry a backpack with extra layers, water, and snacks.
